This book was your typical "Tyler Perry feel-good" type of novel.Predictable, and had a few laughs here and there.I have read much better work from Billingsley but this is a good quick-read to lift your spirits.
This book really made you think about how you treat your family and how they are really all you can count on at the end of it all. It was pretty predictable but I liked it
as always, wonderful in this contemporary with no fantastic or elements but a surprise in the ending!
All I can say is...sometimes family are the only ones who will stand by you! Raedella had to learn the hard way that God's plan is not always our plan. She had not choice but to submit and allow God to work in her life.
Good book except for the profanity, always remember where you came from cause you never know when you might have to go back.
Wow! This was a great book I loved it. It's a shame I didn't read it sooner. I didn't want it to end. :)
ReShonda Tate Billingsley never seems to disappointment the reader. I Know I've Been Changed was a great read! Laugh out loud moments and where you wanted to hug and choke the main character, Raedella, all at the same time. The story really draws you in and you can't wait to see what happens next. Excellent book that drew me in that I read it in 2 days.
Raedella Rollins left the dusty town of Sweet Poke, Arkansas on a Texas-bound bus with four mismatched suitcases, a newsroom job offer, and a promise to herself: never look back. Now, less than a decade later, she’s a top-rated talk show host and fiancée to Houston’s star councilman. The future looks bright for Rae, and Sweet Poke is nothing more than a distant memory.But now that she’s reached the top, her ragtag family comes knocking. Mama Tee, the grandmother who raised her, calls with unwelc...
It was okay. It had a little bit too much cursing for my taste. I read Christian books to get away from wordly garbage. Mama Tee upset me. She was supposed to be the virtuous woman in the story, but she had a potty mouth. She can't teach others to be holy if she wasn't living a holy example in front of her female relatives. She made a joke about "shackin" with a deacon none the less. That wasn't funny to me. Call me a prude. I call it holy. I don't think that the main character was treated fair...
This was a predictable plot and yet I couldn't put it down. I'm such a sucker for tales of transformation and this is just the type!
This book was indeed a good read. It hit home with some similar experiences. I would easily recommended this book to anyone who is or has ever been close to me...Any spiritual individual would absolutely love to read this book. Accordingly, I could easily read it again and again.
I loved it. Mama Tee with her witty and wise sayings was my absolute favorite. She was the quintessential southern grandmama and the backbone of the family. I enjoyed seeing Rae’s transition in this story. I would love a follow-up story to see what her life is like now. Great read.
People must realize that family is all you've got and when you reject them, you miss out on a whole lot of things. I can understand her desire to get out of the town but she's so desperate for people not to find out about her family. Glad in the end she found peace within herself to accept them and her misgivings about her mom.
Raedella was a woman seriously struggling with her inner demons.I'm glad it wasn't the typical picture perfect ending with Raedella either taking back her husband, or finding another man to accept her, acceptance for her mother, or her living happily ever after. This story had real truth and grit to it. I felt like it was real and a true story. Not everything that glitters is gold.
Many times we take advantage of the blessings that are directly in front of us; in this particular case the blessing is family. This novel focuses on a family's love even when the character Rae Rollins disowns them. Family is always a constant in everyone's life through challenges and triumphs.
EXCELLENT BOOK.
This book held my attention
An ok read if you can excuse the foul language.
This book is light fare--there are all these books out now that have this "you need to get right with god" storyline and this is such a book. (The publishers sent it to me, so I'm reading it, cuz it's fast and easy and maybe I need Jesus). My question is: why do all these popular black women writers always have protagonists who are light skinned and have long hair? And the men always have hazel eyes? It's annoying. But I read on....
Unable to complete this read after 70 pages for some reason. I really was looking forward to reading this one since I liked Say Amen series. There was nothing wrong with the writing but oddly I couldn't continue reading this one; not as engaging as I would have liked. Therefore I will not rate since (dislike reads are a 1 and not fair to the author just because of me not intrigued in the read once it started out. Have so many reads and just stopped in one sitting.).Leisure read 2015
