Wifey [?]

The book that i am reading is titled Wifey. This is the third series of Wifey and iam going to read the others as well. I havent read a lot of this book to give you guys a good picture of the novel. but from what i read so far was that the main character in the novel Kira owns a profitable hair and nail salon. She lives in a nice home in an exclusive community with her husband Ricky, an infamous, well-known drug dealer from the rough streets of D.C. He is also known to be one of the most feared men in the South. But thats only 'cause he think he big and bad. Because of Ricky's drug-empire, Kira finds herself in the most dangerous situation ever. Ricky forces Kira to believe that he's going to call on his reinforcements, so everything will end in his favor. However, unknown to Ricky, Kira felt the need to devise an escape plan on her own. Will she choose loyalty or her life? We wont know til i read more. this book is really good so far.

"In a world where everyone wants to be "Wifey" the question is, can you play your position and handle the drama the streets will throw your way?"
 But the real way you can do this is lose the fake name of a wifey and take the possition of his wife. You will be powerless with out that ring on your finger. So stop looking at what you have and start looking at what you can get.

The Trophy Wife


For my second choice reading i'm reading a book by the title of The Trophy Wife by Ashely & Jaquavis. I'm on chapter three and still going and enjoying the book so far. This book is about a guy that has a story and know of these to authors that write's novel's for a living that lives in his home town. But mind you he is in jail this whole time and is getting his information from his outside people. He has his friend find Ashely and Jaquavis who are the authors as well as the characters in the story. They had a book fair in Harlem, New York in the streets where there fans crowed the table to get a autographed signatures from Ashely & Jaquavis. But something scared them when someone was standing across the street and was watching them during the whole book signing. It was a man that stood out, out of everyone in the area. The man finally walk across the street and told them and slammed an envelope on the table then walked away. 


Inside was half a million dollars and an note that asked them to go to an address. They didn't want to touch the money till they found out who was giving them this kind of money and why ? So they went to the address and to there surprise it was a prison. And when they got inside the security escorted then to the guy that sent then there. The guys name was Khalil, said he wants to tell everyone his story and the only way that it can get heard is if people read it. He's in jail and no one would listen to an ex-con. But Ashely & Jaquavis did write autobiography's, Ashely mad that known as soon as he said something about his story. Wait lets hear what the man has to say, Jaquavis said with tension in his voice. Okay Sheesh ! Ashely Replied and rolled her eyes and proceeded to listen to Khalil's story. 


This story has a lot of sense in her that are very good. Like the one in the second chapter when he came home and to his surprise his girl friend was cheating on him. And his daughter wasn't doing to well. But its like daddy saved the day because when he came back everything was back to normal. But i cant wait to it gets to the juicy part in the story where his worst enemy is the one that was cheating on him comes out and tells him the truth. Its gone be a good sense to read up on.


I really cant tell you much about the store because all the book right know is doing is telling you how Khalil has come home from prison and is trying to make a change in is life. Bump into his worst enemy exiting from his block and staring him down in the car. They drive away and bump into the one person in Harlem that he was trying to get away from White-Boy. White-Boy was one of the reason's Khalil was behind bars selling drugs and killing people was his theme. "Time is money, so don't waist it". 


This can also go into one of my favorite books category along with the last book that I've read Loving Dasia by Ana Gia Wright. That book is similar to this book that i am courtly reading know it has the same intensity as this book The Trophy Wife. I'm so anxious to hear about what's going to happen next. Now i don't know who is related to Khalil or his enemy's or anyone in the story at this point in the book. But for now i'm going keep this going and if you want to know more just leave a comment with your question. Surely will get back to you with your answer. This video is very funny and it may have something or the typical definition of a Trophy Wife. I like this video that i added because it is his ideal trophy wife that he would like to have and see in her. And Khalil in the store is looking for that because the woman he thought he had isn't holding him down.

Loving Dasia

Loving Dasia is a good book that i would read more then once. The book Loving Dasia was about a girl name Dasia that was dating her boyfriend start out of high school and were planing on getting married, But things went down hill from there. At the altar her soon to be husband had a confession to make in front of everyone. He held her hands and said," Dasia i love you but, I'm not in love with you". I'm in love with her, and pointed to her best friend Monica standing behind her. Dasia took it like a man said her words and then left. Everyone was surprised about the way she took it. But little did they know she was more worried about where she was going to be living. Since she was going to get married she figured what was the point on renewing her lease. 


Throughout the book Dasia was going throw a lot of trust issues and problems since the big brake up which brought stress upon her. She meet a guy name G- at the hotel that she was staying at only because she was outside crying her eyes out to let out of the pain she was hiding at the wedding. She was in her wedding dress when G approached her asking her why was she crying on the one day in her life where she should be happy. Dasia proceeded to give him attitude then stopped and noticed that she shouldn't take her anger out on him because he was not the issue. I like this book a lot because this book and make you look at your love life and triple look at your lover. Because if you don't know how your partner feels about you. You may end up like Dasia.


The story continues and Dasia moves into G's old apartment. Dasia said no but G- insisted that she take this offer. Dasia was so over whelmed that she just meet someone that would just give her an apartment for free. she tried so hard to convince him to let her pay rent. G- said,"No way i cant take money from you". Dasia replied in a nagging voice," Please G- its the least i can do". G- gave in and took the offer but didn't take very much from her. But from that day on Dasia's life had been a roller coaster that just wont end. G- was living a double life. He had owned the complex houses that Dasia was living in and also 2-4 others in different towns. G- was also and ex undercover killer and had worked with an Agency and tried to change his life around. 


Dasia's ex fiance had put a hit out on her because her ex fiance Jeremiah was trying his hardest to win her heart back because he realized that Dasia was the one that he was in love with not Monica. So he figured if he could have her then neither then he. Jeremiah broke into her apartment, Almost killed her, And have his people follow her. G- starts to fall for her and asked her to marry him. Dasia said can they wait it out and that's what they did. But after awhile Dasia started to fall even more in love with him after there little bed room sense but that wasnt the only problem. She was a virgin and G- took that and there first time she popped up pregnant. Dasia never told G- until a devastating problem accuses. G- found out that Jeremiah was the one that tried to kill Dasia broke into her house and had people following her. So the double life misters person came out of him. And his name was the Reaper. Choa his friend new it was going to be trouble. So there was no stopping him.


G- went to him house and killed him so he had Choa his friend shoot him so it can look like it was an accident. But mind you Jeremiah and Dasia were suppose to meet up and talk about why he was doing this. As Dasia approached the house she witnessed everything. And ran to G- Held him in her arms and felt him die instantly. Dasia was surprised when there was a knock on the door and it was G- she couldn't do nothing but cry. G- asked her to marry him once again and it was a definite yes this time. They got married and had a child on the way they were so happy. Then it was a knock on the door and it was someone for Dasia and it was Jeremiahs case worker. Jeremiah left everything he had to her. Dasia was surprised and continues her life with G- happy as can be.

The Way I Feel About Reading . . .




The book that i remember as a child was Green Eggs And Ham, this book had me stuck in the same spot for about a good hour. I loved that book so much i went to sleep with it in my bed. I liked that book all the way up until my 6 year old niece was born in 2004. But over all Green Eggs And Ham, was my first experience that i remember.


Growing up in a bad area you really don't have time to concentrate on reading at times. Your more worried about what you going to be doing in the next to hours either your going to do this for your mom or you gone duck from bullets. I didn't like reading when i was young and i don't like it now.  I am trying to get out of this faze that i have going with me not liking reading but its kinda hard to get into a book when there's so many other things you can be doing.




The way i feel about reading is not a very good  feeling. I really don't like reading but i read because i have to or because i want to learn about new things. If it came down to me reading or going outside with my friends, with no hesitation i will be outside with my friends chilling on the porch. But i read thing one book called Daddy's Little Girl, i really thought that book was interesting and i got into it. But that's the only book that i liked and i ready that book in the 8th grade i believe. I liked this but because it had a story that i could relate to and it really touched my heart. But Daddy's Little Girl, will always be my number one choice book. 

I would say my reading experience # 1 and now are pretty much the same but i have an eye for drama and heart felt books now. My change in reading choices have changed a lot because of the type of person that i have grown u to become. I like to read about drama but the one thing that makes me long for a book or biography's or story's about how you mad it from a low stage in your life to a high point. Like i said before i like reading only when i have to. But when i read drama or heart felt books its just something that makes me want to read more about. And i love series of books. I just wont to by one whole series of books and i would be happy.

I dislike reading only because most of the time i'm reading a book that i'm forced to read or have to read for a class. I cant concentrate on something that doesn't interest me because it doesn't click. And reading is just not something i like to do when i am willingly doing it. I don't read in class because i don't like to read out loud because people tend to laugh or giggle when you stumble over words and i don't like that at all. So i don't read in class.

I would like to read more book that are not in the same category as mines and try to get in the mood to read. I would love to leave out of this school year loving to participate in class reading assignments. I want to read faster and flow with a pas. Be able to read to people with out being shy. And just over all get the hang off reading because reading is something that i have to do all my life no matter what field of work i'm doing.
