24 Hour Flash Giveaway | Who Asked You?, by Terry McMillan

Hey friends,

Remember Waiting to Exhale? How about How Stella Got Her Grove Back? Well Ms.McMillan is back with a new drama filled book.  Thanks to Viking Adult I'm able to hold a giveaway for one paperback copy. This is a quick 24 hour flash giveaway! 

What does that mean? It meant you only have until tomorrow at midnight to enter to win!   Good luck!

 Happy Reading, 
~Tamara

Synopsis: With her wise, wry, and poignant novels of families and friendships—Waiting to Exhale, Getting to Happy, and A Day Late and a Dollar Short among them—Terry McMillan has touched millions of readers. Now, in her eighth novel, McMillan gives exuberant voice to characters who reveal how we live now—at least as lived in a racially diverse Los Angeles neighborhood.

Kaleidoscopic, fast-paced, and filled with McMillan’s inimitable humor, Who Asked You? opens as Trinetta leaves her two young sons with her mother, Betty Jean, and promptly disappears. BJ, a trademark McMillan heroine, already has her hands full dealing with her other adult children, two opinionated sisters, an ill husband, and her own postponed dreams—all while holding down a job delivering room service at a hotel. Her son Dexter is about to be paroled from prison; Quentin, the family success, can’t be bothered to lend a hand; and taking care of two lively grandsons is the last thing BJ thinks she needs. The drama unfolds through the perspectives of a rotating cast of characters, pitch-perfect, each playing a part, and full of surprises.

Who Asked You? casts an intimate look at the burdens and blessings of family and speaks to trusting your own judgment even when others don’t agree. McMillan’s signature voice and unforgettable characters bring universal issues to brilliant, vivid life.

I am a long time fan of Terry McMillan and I can NOT wait to read this book. A Day Late and a Dollar Short was one of my favorites. It was so dramatic and moving

I didn't read that one, I just looked it up and it sounds good. I should put that on my TBR list.

I read Waiting to Exhale back in the '90s and Mama. I of course saw WTE. My favorite movie based on one of her books though is Disappearing Acts. I just love it! I really can't wait to read something new by some who's work I truly admire.

I really loved Disappearing Acts how too. But I did think that the book was better than the movie on that one.
