Customer Reviews

Magazine not a BOOK?
This book was like a bunch of magazine and newspaper articles put together. I am huge Bobby Brown fan, and found this book a waste.
The pictures were poor and the captions underneath them were all wrong.
These could not have been Bobby's personal collection, if so they were sorry.
Derrick you really need to get some help with your editing. You went from first person to third person too many times. You also need to learn a little bit more about the Bobby and New Edition before you try and write a book about them.
Derrick I know you had to make changes to the book, but you could have kept this book.
I could have wrote this book after talking with a few friends of Bobby's.
Derrick you said you spent a year interviewing Bobby, well that was a waste of Bobby's time.

VERY DISAPPOINTED, I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!
and now I see that its even cheaper, on sale. I guess they sold enough to lower the price. If I have anything to do with it I will tell all of my friends not to buy this book.

I hope that Bobby can write a better book one day to redeem himself from this one.Bobby Brown: The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But...

Just the facts
This book is just a start for the author. It's overpriced for one thing, fancy pages or not - and it's quite a bit like a long magazine article.

Don't waste your money
I love biographies and memoirs but this book was horrible. I learned more about Bobby watching his show. To add insult to injury, the quality of the pics inside was embarrassing. What a waste...
