Not Her Best Book but they get much better
Reviewed: 10-29-24
This book read like a freshman attempt. It was clumsy and only mildly entertaining. The male voice attempting to narrate the woman’s voice was not great. I’ve read other great books by this author and look forward to others but this wasn’t one of them.

Story
Ranch owner Jesse Pleasant always felt too big for his desert town and too brutish to fit in with his charming, cowboy brothers. After his temper gets the best of him one time too many, he's ready to accept the truth: He's cursed to be alone. But when the Senate selection committee comes looking for a man of his public standing, he knows this might be his chance to prove to his family and friends that he can keep his cool, all while giving back to his community. There's only one problem. While Jesse definitely has a mind for business, his people skills are more than lacking.

This book is so good. Imaginative, thoughtful, well written, heartfelt and culturally relevant. It evoked several emotions and had me hooked from start to finish. The narrator is tremendously talented and managed the book expertly. I can’t wait to read the next installment.

Her perspective is a great conclusion to a very public story and it added depth to a story that you’ll easily assume is wrapped up after her Moms book.

Excellent Insight into a Fascinating Woman Leader and Her World
Reviewed: 11-10-23
I was a longtime member of the Urban League and didn’t know anything about Mollie Moon which truly saddens me. I’m grateful to the author and love this book because it introduced me to Mollie but also because it makes clear that the issues surrounding the social justice movement today aren’t new and the misogynoir, blanket vilification of the African American “elite”, fear of co-option of the movement and concerns about the limits of allyship have always been prevalent. The book also shows how Mollie and her peers successfully exercised their power during a time when - as we’d been erroneously taught - African Americans had no power and solely relied on the good will of good White ally’s in order to progress. This was empowering!
The author does take slightly more creative license in specific incidents than is believable but, overall, this is superbly executed and truly entertaining and I can’t wait to share this with family and friends.

Reviewed: 10-30-23
This is a history of hip hop from those who lived it and, because Will is the host, the dialog is easy, honest and extremely entertaining. This needs to be an ongoing series because there’s so many more stories to be told. I’ll actually listen to this multiple times.

Solid Plot but not the best execution
Reviewed: 05-21-23
The premise of the book was solid, narration was good from both voices but the book took much longer for me to finish because it felt disjointed and incomplete. Jasmine’s worst is better than most people’s best but this was my least favorite of hers to date.
