Summary: Oye.....the drama!
Review: This book is drama drama drama from start to finish. From Ruby, the fat girl that can't catch a break. To Wanda, the plus-size model who knows that "fat is where it's at." To Simone, who used to be fat but is now the da'bomb slender newscaster. All three of the girls take their own wild ride through the book. You'll find it hard to put down and if you read it in public you'll find people staring at you for laughing out loud.

Summary: Loads of Fun!!!!!
Review: This book made a usually gruesome flight to Europe an enjoyable experience. I read the entire thing in one sitting (from New York to Paris). The book was made up of very short chapters that kept me constantly entertained. I think everyone near me on the plane was going to by a copy when they got back to the States as they kept watching me laugh out loud during the flight.

Summary: MR. SANCHEZ HAS DONE IT AGAIN
Review: This was another great book. I am an avid reader of African American authors but he's an honorary member of my author list.
I thought Girlfriends was great, this is better. The funny situations that one did to eat out, another proud to be plump and one scared to be.
I love the fact that one of the characters was so comfortable with her weight and did not care about societies opinion of the average weight.

Summary: Great Book!
Review: When I read the jacket copy for The Way It Is, I thought is was going to a Bridget Jones' type book about neurotic women trying to take off 10 pounds....boy was I wrong! Two of the main characters are fat...and I mean FAT...not typical chick-lit "I'm a size 8 and I'm a hippo and need to loose weight." Sanchez never says how big they are but from one scene in the book we do know they are larger than a size 16. It was so refreshing to read a book about two truly large women and see how each one of them handled it so differently. The book was hilarious, well written, and has a great ending. BUY IT!

Summary: Love It Or Leave It
Review: Wow!! Patrick Sanchez did it again!! This was a fun novel about three women who went through all of life's stuff, and survived notoriously........I love Mr. Sanchez' style of writing. He introduces the characters in depth (leaving no room for confusion) before his story line begins. I felt sorry for Ruby, as she was tormented her entire life about being fat. Even her mother was relentless. This part of the story seemed to go on and on, for me, as she was extremely obsessed with dietary fashion (or lack thereof). I loved the three of them together. It showed the real meaning of TRUE SISTERHOOD. The three of them worked well together and the story line seemed to mesh. I loved the fact that Wanda taught Ruby how to love herself just the way she was, and that she did not have to change herself in order to love herself. Although I enjoyed this book, GIRLFRIENDS is still my #1 favorite!!!
Thanks, Mr. Sanchez, once again. Looking forward to book #3.
