Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Do Right Man pays homage to black relationships
Review: This book captures the witty, poignant nuances to romancing in the 90's. The characters implore the reader to understand their points of view whether you agree with them or not. This book is excellent reading for anyone (male or female) who has ever done a post-morten on a relationship or may be contemplating a new relationship.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT
Review: OMAR TYREE DID A GREAT JOB IN TELLING A STORY ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS FROM A MANS POINT OF VIEW. HE REMINDED US THAT THERE ARE SOME MEN WHO STILL WANT A LOVING AND FULFILLING RELATIONSHIP. ALTHOUGH THE STORY TENDED TO FOCUS ON THE WORLD OF RADIO BROADCAST, IT HAD ALL THE MAKINGS OF A HIT!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Reading
Review: YOu know a book is good when you can put it down. Its nice to know that E.J.Dickey is not the only brother who can write!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Did it work for u cuz at times it didn't for me
Review: This book started off slow. But it had its good parts. Bobby an inspiring radio host is so confused. He has a girlfriend that he is scared of and she just does him wrong. I don't think the males would agree with the way he handled it, until the end. But the book was ok to read. I don't want to say it was bad but it was cool.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A Confused Disc Jockey
Review: Oh my what a mess! Here we meet Bobby Dallas, an unassertive student at Howard University who starts "sleeping" with a girl who he's obviously afraid of! He moves to New York with Pearl gets a job blah...blah...blah... she leaves he leaves and he goes on and on like this the entire book. In college Bobby and his best friend Faye had a liking for one another okay why they didn't get it on? At the end of the book they finally get together! The details about working in the radio industry was really interesting and I guess Omar was trying to get across how hard it is to be a "black male" but it failed in my opinion! The character just came across as simple not as struggling to learn he didn't have the backbone he was a gentleman but at what cost? I loved Single mom but I haven't picked up anything else by Omar.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good read
Review: The "Do Right Man" by Omar Tyree was good, but move rather slow. However, I did enjoy the book thoroughly, because it dealt with some reality that other books do not address. The reality I am speaking of in which I can relate to is the main character Bobby Dallas whom is struggling with the development of his career and finances. So many authors create this perfect utopia where nobody has problems with money or their career, and their biggest problem is finding that perfect "soulmate".

I was interested in how Pearl Davis would finally get what was coming to her for dumping Bobby the way she did and not really giving him a second thought. However, the author did not go into that which I wanted to know more than anything.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The Radio Man
Review: Though I was able to read this novel from cover to cover, I had a few problems with it. I'm still trying to figure out what made Bobby Dallas "A Do Right Man." Because he was passionate about his career in the radio biz? Jumping from one woman's bed to the next all the while trying to figure out why he can't keep one makes him 'a do right man'? Had the author spent more time developing Bobby's relationships and not so much of his career, we would have been able to see what made this man so great. The title of this book is definitely misleading and should be re-named "The Radio Man."
