Review: Flyy Girl by Omar Tyree

I can see why so many women loved this book as a teenager, because reading this as a mature adult was a drag. The slang, the plot, just everything was geared towards the teenage mind.

The book follows the main character Tracy from being a young child through her junior year of high school. Throughout her teen years, it was a revolving door of men that came in and out of her life. Tracy meets drug deal, drug dealer gets the cookie, drug dealer loses interest and leaves the picture, enter new guy and do this all over again.

This book no lie took me over a month to get through. The first half was a drag for me but after I hit the halfway mark, it began to pick up a bit. I’m glad I read this so that my black card can be reinstated, however I now realize I would have been just fine without reading this one too. This book was a ⭐️⭐️⭐️ for me. I think it’s definitely geared for a younger audience.
