ReviewsPraise for I Almost Forgot About You "Terry McMillan's novels have always been about telling the uncensored truth about friends, family, lovers, and oneself. Through addictively revealing conversations--including an instructive one about the sexual prowess of men who made the A list--McMillan's narrator is the ideal running commentator on what smart women do to reach the pinnacle of success and what they must do to get the hell out before it's too late. It's a story about both reinvention and acceptance, told in McMillan's quintessential voice, now even more expansive, prismatically perceptive, and laugh-aloud generous in how we talk about love and all its wonders." - Amy Tan, New York Times bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club and The Valley of Amazement "The warmth and wisdom we have come to expect from Terry McMillan are on full display and you won't be able to walk away from Georgia and her exuberant life. This is that thrilling kind of novel that reminds us how sometimes, fairy tales happen when we least expect them, if only we open ourselves to possibility." - Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author of Bad Feminist and An Untamed State, Praise for I Almost Forgot About You "McMillan has written an engaging novel with an appealing cast of women... This near-perfect choice for women's book club discussions will prompt arguments of what makes a guy too good to be true. Stock up with multiple copies." - Library Journal, starred review "Fans of McMillan will welcome this new addition to her oeuvre. Here is McMillan's trademark style in full, feisty effect: strong, complicated female characters, energetic prose, and an entertaining, seductive narrative. A heartwarming story that reminds us of the pure joy of believing in love." - Kirkus Reviews "In her signature mode, McMillan has a casual, conversational style that makes her determined female lead warmly engaging and relatable. With humor and a feel-good tone, McMillan reminds readers that it is never too late for love or new possibilities." - Booklist "Terry McMillan's novels have always been about telling the uncensored truth about friends, family, lovers, and oneself.

It came together later in the book.
It took me about two chapters to really get into the book. I was pretty much intrigued with the rest of the book. It kept my interest, but I couldn't figure out why the book was titled like it was. I didn't see any correlation between the title and what I was reading. It finally made sense later in the book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
