Naughty or Nice Book Review
Have you been naughty or nice? Santa's checking the list, and I am, too. Please keep reading to find out what book I'm reviewing today.
Hey, it's Kyla Denanyoh. I have a favorite author, Eric Jerome Dickey. I am obsessed with his writing. I started reading it when I was in college, and I kept reading it. I fell in love with the characters. I even set a reminder on my phone every couple of months to check for when he was doing a book review so that I could go in person, meet him, get him to sign some books and all of this stuff.
So it's only right that I review the book Naughty or Nice. The author is Eric Jerome Dickey. The genre of the book is fiction. The theme of the book is literature or African-American literature.
The book is about the McBroom sisters, Frankie, Tommy, and Livy. I love them. An important quote in the book is when their mother says marriage is about the end. The book starts with them discussing marriage, which is about the end, and Tommy asks, "What is Mama talking about?" I never know what she's talking about.
Well, spoiler alert: their mom passes away, and we find out towards the end of the book that Tommy is not their biological sister; it's Olivia and Frankie. Then, their mom marries Tommy's dad, and they all get together. But the mom always says marriage is about the end.
Libby, who is married, asks what in the world Mama is talking about. Frankie, who is divorced, is like, I still don't know what Mama's talking about. And then Tommy is like, you know, she struggles with love. But she's like, what is Mama talking about? Marriage is about the end.
So, that quote is important to me because marriage is about the end. The end, OK? Who do you want to see at the end of the day? Who do you want to talk to at the end of the night? Who do you want to spend the end of the year with? Who do you want to see at the end of your life? Marriage is about the end, and I love that. It's a unique way to discuss marriage. It's a unique way to discuss relationships. As you read the book Naughty or Nice, that quote is significant because it means something different to each of the sisters, and I'm sure that quote will mean something different to each reader.
Would I reread this book? Yes. The first time I read the book, I thought it was cute. I started with the second book. This was before I used to look in the front of books and see where the authors wrote everything they wrote. so I started with Naughtier Than Pleasant, and they kept making so many references to another book I was like, wait, there has to be a first one, and so then I read the first one. I own the books, and I have listened to the audiobooks in addition to reading the physical books. So yeah, I would reread these books.
