Liar's Game

Eric Jerome Dickey's latest book is true of relationships between not only african-americans, but all people. I just finished reading his last book "Cheaters" when I decided to read this book. Needless to say, I finished the book having gained an new insight into relationships.  The two main characters of the book are very realistic and well-written. Both are people who although they have secrets from the past, chose to not tell each other for fear of what will happen. This is so true, especially when someone tries to date. Although the person will say that they are single, who knows what happened in their past that they aren't telling you?  Throughout the book,Dickey writes from both the perspective of the man and woman.What impresses me is that he isn't stereotypical at all when he writes from either perspective. He doesn't assume that because he's writing as a woman that she's supposed to act a certain way nor doesn't he do the same with the man.   This is a book that you should read if you want to gain new insight into relationships.Also, you should read this if you want to see how to write a story from the point of view of a man or female.If you'd like to read more from this author, you should read Cheaters.
