Review:
Wonderfully written...more than just a good beach read. Washington Post Book World

What gives the book a compelling edge is the characters self-discovery...Thankfully, Dickey goes beyond the men are dogs and women are victims stereotype. USA Today

Raw, street-savvy humor. Publishers Weekly

As the title suggests, this is a book about dawgs. Not dogs, but d-a-w-g-s. Cheatin, lyin, no good, no- count, dirty lowdown mendawgs and womendawgs You can t read Cheaters without becoming an active participant. You easily find yourself turning a page, shaking your head, and tsk-tsking. Los Angeles Times

Modern dating has become a world in which individuals play games to keep the upper hand. Eric Jerome Dickey explores these mores with verve. USA Today

Each character s voice [is] smooth, unique and genuine. Washington Post Book World

Cheaters not only makes readers examine their own behavior but keeps them laughing while doing so. Library Journal

His storytelling skills are first-rate. Detroit Free Press

Wrenching emotion he draws a tragic, romantic picture of love as both a panacea and a curse, an unavoidably painful pleasure. Durham Herald-Sun

A generous helping of humor and a distinctly male viewpoint. Atlanta Journal and Constitution

Dickey s fourth novel easily fulfills the expectations created by his earlier work and introduces a fresh sobriety to his talent for dialogue and character smoothly done. Kirkus Reviews

From the Author:
thanks!
Thanks for the shout outs and support from "Sister, Sister" to the present. And thanks trekking through this cyber-wormhole and chillin' out at my little DS9. (Hmmm...if only I could think of a Voyager and Next Generation reference..)

I love to read the reviews -- well, most of 'em. LOL. Whether you like the book or not (that's on you) On posting your review/comments PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE (my James Brown impersonation -- get my cape, I'm ready to roll) follow amazon's guidelines and don't reveal any key plot points or twists. That spoils it for the rest of the readers who haven't picked up the book yet. (If you're new to this, please don't hesitate to check out amazon's sample reviews before you post) And it's kinda cool when I read the reviews (on my page or anyone else's page) that actually have something to do with the book at hand, instead of all the comparisons to other peeps with books. (inhale, exhale, now focus...much better)

So much baggage, so few baggage handlers.
