Don't Make a Black Woman Take Off Her Earrings: Madea's Uninhibited Commentaries on Love and Life

This book for me is a re-read, and I am typically not a person who re-reads books...I am one who feels like there are too many books in the world to keep re-reading the same ones over and over again.... but, I read this book around the time it came out about 8 years ago...and I loved it even then. (Will I ever re-read another book? Maybe! Or was I a person who totally wrote off re-reading a book? No. It's just not something I would make a big habit of unless I felt I needed information out of that book and/or maybe I can't get to any other books at that time...or whatever other reason there may be in that moment in time)

But I digress...

But, for some reason, I decided to type in Tyler Perry on scribd and the book came up...in audio! With show more Madea reading! I Had To Listen!

Listening to this book, was even funnier than the first time...I laughed the first time..A lot I'm sure...but I laughed so hard while listening to Madea read this and go off track a couple times. There were a couple times a word or two were changed around, added to, etc..but that's okay...That made it that much better!

I had so much fun reading and listening to this book! I pulled so much out of it this go round, as Im sure I got good advice the first time I listened to it as well. But now that I'm older, a little wiser, I'm sure I can do more with it now than I did then.

But I have to say, if you're going to read and/or listen to this book...make sure you're in a place that you can laugh out loud and not care about the people around you..because you will be doing just that! Or, you know how to just hold back a little bit, like I had to when I was listening to it in public. I just smiled, hard, and when I finally opened my door, and she said something funny..I just let out the laughter! Loud! show less

This book is great! I was so surprised! I expected it to be stupid, but the advice was sound and the stories were very funny. I highly recommend it. I have even gotten a few Medea movies to see if she's as funny on the big screen.

I really enjoyed this book. I found out some facts about Madea that I did not know, even though I have seen all of her movies. This book was just as funny as her movies are. Tyler Perry is a very talented man. Another thing I like about Tyler Perry is that in the epilogue he made sure to thank God for giving him the gift to write this book. You do not see that as often as you should.

Madea is my hero. Everything Tyler Perry does has a great message when you look through the humor.

Just wasn't nearly as funny as I had hoped.

so so. I got bored. Didn't finish it

Hilarious
