The book ‘For The Love of Money’ by Omar Tyree follows Tracy Ellison through ...
I give this book a three star for capturing an unremarkable and phenomenal African American continuation of the adventures of stardom. The book ‘For The Love of Money’ by Omar Tyree follows Tracy Ellison through her experience From hard-knocks Philly to glamorous Hollywood. Now twenty-eight years old, Tracy returns to the East Coast in order to connect with her roots. As a successful author (of a novel called Flyy Girl, an interaction the author gives between the characters and audience), TV and screenwriter, and rising movie actress, she begins to take a closer look at her fame, fortune and heart, addressing the uncertainties of her youth. Feeling exposed in the grounds of her hood, stirs up a string of difficult questions about past loves, ambivalent family ties, and her artistic ambitions. She tries to act unaffected by her success, but family, friends, and acquaintances relate to her differently now that she is seen on a different level. Tracy "struggles" to get a hot movie part while trying to lure author Omar Tyree to help her write the sequel to Flyy Girl. Tyree may turn off some readers with his occasional references to himself and his success throughout the narrative along with Tracy’s cliche poetry. But I couldn’t help but feel that I learned much while on Tracy's adventures which provide cool commentary on ambition, love, friendship and the price of fame. Her story is uplifting and intended to give a positive picture of stardom, money, and family where young adult readers are supposed to learn how wonderful money and fame can be if you keep your head on straight.

Another Great Book by Tyree
After reading Flyy Girl, I instantly had to continue the series of the story. I enjoyed learning about Tracey's journey to Hollywood as a screenwriter.

I like how Tracy matured in this novel. I also liked how Omar tied in the past with the present.
