This Just in

This was my first Yolanda Joe book, but it won't be my last! I really liked her style -- so easy to read. And as someone who's been in the TV business for 9 years, I can attest that every word is TRUE! Joe handles with finesse the issues we all deal with every day, and not just in the TV industry: balancing family and work, climbing the corporate ladder, relationships. Reading her book was like having a good heart-to-heart with your girlfriends. When I finished I felt like a good friend had just said to be "Girl, I know what you're going through, but there's hope!" Though the book's central characters are primarily African American, the themes and issues she deals with transcend race. It's worth picking up a copy -- you'll enjoy this!

I throughly enjoyed every page of This Just In. I could relate to some of these women and furthermore I felt as if though I knew these women and what they were going through. Also, I loved the set-up of the book. It kept me turning the pages to see what would happen next. I recommend this book to anyone.

This was a 'write on time' read for me since I just earned a B.A. degree in Journalism. 'This Just In..' gave me an opportunity to get an inside sneak preview of office politics, in relations to racism and sexism, in the newsroom. It is a 'must read' for anyone interested in the field of broadcast news. And for those just curious, it will certainly raise your level of appreciation for newsroom staffers and how their job interacts with their personal life.Yolanda, keep writing......(and feeding us with your real-life stories.)

This book had alot of inside information on the tv news business. Some parts were funny and other parts were very serious. It held my attention and I was amazed at how entertaining it was. Good Job Ms. Joe!

Excellent! Yolanda Joe took us right into broadcast journalism from the pages of her book. Her writing style prevents one from putting the book down until you are done. Someone once told me that the problem with a Good Book is that you never want it to end. "This Just In", by Yolanda Joe is a prime example of that statement. I can't wait to see what she writes next.
