Unrealistic yet predictable
Reviewed: 10-25-24
The story was very unrealistic yet predictable. The characters also had zero layers to them. Very flat book. That being said, the sex scenes descriptions were top notch

Very predictable story line with one dimensional characters. That being said, it’s better than anything I could write.

Story
Just as I Am is my truth. It is me, plain and unvarnished, with the glitter and garland set aside. Here, I am indeed Cicely, the actress who has been blessed to grace the stage and screen for six decades. Yet I am also the church girl who once rarely spoke a word. I am the teenager who sought solace in the verses of the old hymn for which this book is named. I am a daughter and mother, a sister, and a friend. I am an observer of human nature and the dreamer of audacious dreams.

Yawn
Reviewed: 08-21-22
Ms. Tyson’s autobiography gives 15 hours of humble bragging. According to her she was perfect in life and when she wasn’t it was because someone else made her behave in an unbecoming nature. She shows zero accountability.
She does tip her hand as to her real self when she tries to rationalize burying her mom in a “rose” colored dress although she asked NOT to be buried in pink. Very mean spirited and spiteful was the real Ms. Tyson

Diaclaimer: I’m only half way through the doom
However, the way Rose speaks about Anna is disturbing. She villeins Anna and infancies Angelica. It’s sometimes hard to listen to.

Story
Tiffany can't avoid being funny: it's just who she is. But The Last Black Unicorn is so much more than a side-splittingly hilarious collection of essays - it's a memoir of the struggles of one woman who came from nothing and nowhere. A woman who was able to achieve her dreams by reveling in her pain and awkwardness, showing the world who she really is, and inspiring others through the power of laughter.

This book was amazingly raw. I loved it and I love Tiffany even more.
I NEVER revisit an audiobook but as soon as I’m done telling you how amazing this book was I’m going to restart it all over again.

This is the next installment in a six volume autobiography that began more than thirty years ago with the appearance of I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. In A Song Flung Up to Heaven Maya Angelou describes her poignant encounters with Martin Luther King, Jr.; her work with the civil rights movement; and witnessing the Watts riots. Battered by the loss of revered black leaders, it takes writer James Baldwin to finally force her out of isolation with a dinner party that inspired her to write.
