THE BATTLE OF THE SEXES HASN'T ENDED- IT'S JUST MOVED TO SUBURBIA.

Now Oliver Goldsmith returns to the trenches in a new novel as unforgettable as THE FIRST WIVES CLUB.

MICHELLE has a perfect marriage, a perfect house and a perfect life in middle class Westchester- until she finds out how her husband has been paying for it all.

Her friend JADA has worked too hard to become the first black woman bank manager in their home town, as well as a wonderful mother her and homemaker, to let her lay about husband take it all away from her. But can she stop him?
ANGIE is their lawyer-and she knows exactly they're going through. Married just a year ago, she's been shell-shocked to find out about her wealth, Ivy League husband's extra-martial activites. Can she help herself, as well as keeping her friends??

Let down by their men and by the law- but they do have each other. Moving, funny and angry, this is the story of how a friendship formed in adversity helps Michelle, Jada and Angie fight back.

How much does a book cover influence you or turn you off??

How much does a cover influence whether or not you buy a book? If you're heard it's a good book, but you don't care for the cover, will you still buy it? Unfortunately, many times my answer is "NO". I have to like the cover at least some or I'll put the book down and choose another.

If I like the cover, I'll proceed to the back and read the blurbs. If I like what I see, I'll open and read the first page. Sometime I feel an immediate click and know I want that books. Other times, I waver and flick to a few other pages, not reading them entirely, just kind of checking.

I can't say that I buy books from reviews, but I have from word of mouth, or if it's by an author I like.

These are some steps to choosing a books :
1. Look at book cover
2. Read blurb on back cover
3. Read first page for book
4. Go to middle of book to see if story will flowing
5. Go to cash register if all the above are met.

Happy Reading!!!!!!
