Critic reviews

"A charged page-turner." (Publishers Weekly)

Phenomenal Read

This may be one of the best books I’ve ever read. It will stay with me.

CAPTIVATING!!!

This is one of the most interesting books that I have listen to dust far. I learned a lot from it and it also kept me interested.

Many times throughout this book I was literally on the edge of my seat. The narrator is excellent and the writing is excellent. I would recommend this book to anyone!

Second Time Around

I read this book many years ago. I cam across it again during some shuffling and loaded it to my audiobook. I enjoyed it even more. Really an enjoyable book.

Major applause given.

Great read!!!! Couldn’t stop listening to the story. Kept me on my toes the whole time.

Great story telling

Tracy you told a story that truly was a gift to every woman to know there worth. I love how the author use words to expressed the love the feelings of the characters I felt in love with Chicken also.

Definite must listen

Not only was I impressed with how Tracy Price-Thompson's story transported you from the American South to Africa to Europe and back again but I was equally impressed with the narrators as well. They brought life and substance to each character. I was captured from beginning to end. It's a definite must listen.

a good read

what a intense book book 1 was very good I laughed and cried and even shout
book 2 was so disgusting I had to jump chapters and maybe I wouldn't read any more but I wanted to know about Bishop and Malcolm so I read on book 3 kept me on my seat I am happy with ending great book and the narrators did a great job

Truley a great piece of work

I've read and listened to "A Woman's Worth" several times. Each time I hear or experience something new. The story follows the lives of three major characters. Their lives eventually become intertwined and climax to surprising ending. This book does not disappoint. I found my self visualizing current movie stars in roles of the characters in the book. Would make a great movie. Spoiler alert. Michael Ealey would be perfect for the role of the adult character of "Chicken". Chris Tucker as his best friend

Lifes painful moments

I enjoyed the authors ability to flesh out the characters and bring their truths to light. Vaginal mutilation seems to be swept under the rug. Though life can be unfair, it's how we learn from the lessons that make a difference. I so wanted Satin to be able to go to America with her husband and daughter. There aren't always happy endings. I cried more than I anticipated.

Phenomenal Story

This story is absolutely breath taking.... I laughed, cried, became angry,... Just full of emotions! Excellent Indeed!
