Mary Monroe

God Ain't Blind (2009)

This was one of my least favorites from Mary Monroe. I usually love her books and had not read her in a long time so I was seeking her former glory. This book was stupid for lack of a better word. I was annoyed by every character as they were one-dimensional and flat. No one had personality. It j...

Mama Ruby (2011)

Its been quite a few years since I've read The Upper Room so I'm going to go back and reread it since this is actually the prequel which delves into Mama Ruby as a child up until age 30. Mama Ruby had a very good up bring in comparison to others in her circle; two parent household, working parent...

She Had It Coming (2008)

She Had It Coming by Mary MonroeI’ve had this book for some years now and just recently got around to finishing. The book started slow that’s why it was so easy for me to put down and whenever I would try to pick it up again something else would draw my attention away from reading. However this t...

God Don't Make No Mistakes (2012)

(FROM JACKET)Theses days, Annette Goode Davis has a pretty full plate-literally and figuratively. Although she's trying to reconcile with her husband, Pee Wee, she's still seeing other men on the side. A woman's got to cover her bases, right?

Lost Daugthers (2000)

You really have to be a patient person to make it through this book. If you have followed the Mama Ruby series, you know that Virgil has been protecting Mama Ruby's biggest secret for years and this is the book where it all hits the fan.I thought that would be the focus of the book, but actually ...

Lost Daughters (2013)

I thought I would never finish this book!!! I love Mary Monroe and read so many of her books but this one just got on my nerves cause it seemed so long and drawned out. I had to finish reading it cause I loved the first book(Moma Ruby-Upper Room))and I wanted to see how the story was gonna play o...

Family of Lies (2014)

Book was good although I hate some of the secrets and lies were never revealed. I was hoping that Vera's hidden secrets would come to light. Although she was wrong, she wasn't the only one and she truly got a raw deal. Funny how men can't acknowledge their own wrong doing when there are 4 fingers...

God Don't Like Ugly (2006)

I was angry throughout the book. Not for what happened to the main character (even though it was a horrible experience) but actually mad at the character. I was mad at Annette because she never spoke out about what happened to her, only to Rhonda. She began to stand up for herself against Mr Boat...
