Explanation As Books God Don't Play (God Don't Like Ugly #3)

Mary Monroe returns to Richland, Ohio to visit with Annette and Rhoda, the heroines and survivors of God Don't Like Ugly and God Still Don't Like Ugly. This novel, God Don't Play, picks up some years later, where seemingly not much has changed. A middle-aged, overweight, "Plain Jane" Annette has been promoted to manager at the debt collection agency. She is still happily married to the younger, good-looking, Pee Wee, a successful barbershop owner and operator. Annette's best friend, Rhoda, is still the wealth y and much envied town beauty who is often shadowed by her 17-year old daughter (and Annette's Goddaughter), Jade, a younger version of Rhoda in more ways than one.

Annette's reticent world is shaken when she suddenly receives hate mail that attacks her physical appearance. She immediately confides in Rhoda and Jade. The hate mail continues and becomes more graphic and violent; it eventually graduates to packages with inappropriate and foul content delivered to her place of employment. Threatening phone calls reveal a woman who claims to be having an affair with Pee Wee. In the midst of all this, life happens and Annette must deal with family illness, disgruntled co-workers, gossiping neighbors, Jade's sexuality issues and a seemingly wayward husband.

As complex as it sounds, I found the plot to be largely single-threaded. It follows the antics of fretful, mild-mannered Annette as she (along with Rhoda and Jade) try to find out who is behind the harassment and uncover their motive. Because it was quite obvious to me who the culprit was fairly early in the novel, it was quite frustrating to read through the remainder of the book observing Annette continually miss clue after clue. It takes nearly 300 pages for her to "get it" (and even then, it is largely by accident, not from any deductive reasoning or investigating). There is a brief confrontation and essentially the novel ends with forgiveness all around with a hint of more to come - perhaps another novel?

For those unfamiliar with the series, this novel contains enough subtle references to plots and events that occurred in the other two "God Don't..." books to give the supporting characters some depth. For those who are familiar with the two previous novels, I think they will be pleased to catch glimpses of Scary Mary, Lilliemae, Betty Jean and other quirky characters. As much as I love Mary Monroe as a writer, I was a bit disappointed with this offering, thus the middle of the road rating.

I was greatly impressed it kept my interest thoroughly . bravo well done

Man...is it just me or is book one the best out of the series?. Really disappointed that I spent money purchasing this book. Since it is a nook book lendable series, the only way i see myself finishing all the books is if I borrow them. In God Don't Play, we find Annette married with a child and happily reunited with estranged family and friends. However, her world starts unraveling as she becomes the victim of anonymous, hateful letters, gifts and calls. Unfortunately, for me, I figured out

Disclosure: I won this book in a Giveaway.God Dont Play is the third installment of what started off as a great series and picks up some years later from the last installment. In this one we find Annette married to her childhood friend, raising a six-year-old daughter, advancing her career and fending off hateful attacks from an anonymous stalker with the help of BFF Rhoda and her seventeen-year-old daughter Jane.I found it emotionally draining the number of times other characters and even



I read that book,, a while ago,,, that is a very good book,,, I have to get back to reading some more of her boooks

I am currently reading this book. I have to say this is the most frustrating book I have ever read. I am bored and Annette is annoying to me. I have to admit I am sticking it out because I do want to get to the end, but it is rough.

the last in the series.
