Analysis of the lives of the women in the four stories builds interest in what happens next. Because of that, the jokes and lighthearted moments make it less of a bore. The author truly knows how to keep an audience. Congrats on botd!!

Romance and crows? Crows are typically associated with the macabre, I would think.

I wasn't expecting a romance themed book from the cover itself. This book offers a captivating blend of humor, romance, and thought-provoking narrative. The author not only tells a story but also educate. I agree that the random shifts between different events could be distracting to some extent. So I'm not sure what the story is about. Thank you for your insightful review.

Gregory Qué seeing a crow at a funeral site and thinking of communicating with crows seems to pique my curiosity. What connection does he have with these crows.

The Crow is a bird known for its intelligence and ability to communicate. Some however see it as a bad omen. Neal Sellers in his book The Cackling of the Crows drew some attention to the bird as it relates to his life. He shares his life experience which is quite romantic. I like that the author gives credit to other authors whose quotes he mentioned. Thanks for the review. Congratulations to the author on BOTD

If a murder of crows could bring out a conversational, educational, and entertaining hip-hop narrative, we could certainly hear some cackling somewhere, at some point. This is a nicely written review, too!

'Official Review: The Cackling of the Crows' by Neal Sellers has a thoughtful introduction. It brings to light the major aspects of the romantic fiction book. The point that the protagonist, Gregory Cue takes us around his romantic life while telling us the stories of four important women and sharing secrets with each is worth mentioning in the review. Readers would enjoy the jokes that are chipped in once in a while. Also, as mentioned in the review, the ending of this book was amazing. Learning that it felt like the author was retelling a story to a friend through the protagonist was great!
