Have read though several sources that Flo's daughter Nicole is releasing a book on Flo called "The Awakening" on May 10th, 2020.
Nicole will be at the Motown Museum to take pictures and autograph copies of the book.
Can anyone confirm or deny?

She's been teasing it on social media, so I would say it's confirmed.Quote:

Speaking of picking up, did you ever pick up Mary's book? It is available at half price now on AmazonQuote:

It's hard to fathom why a small bunch of so called Supremes fans are using the possibility of a new book about Flo,written by a grieving daughter to take cheap pot shots at Mary Wilson.What a strange world we live in.
Hopefully the book will prove a decent one providing further insight into her troubled life. It would be nice to discover more about the happy times of which i'm sure there were many.
Hon, no one’s taking “cheap pot shots” at Mary. Look closer.Quote:

Every thread on the forum is open to 'cheap pot shots' at other Supremes. Tit for tat. Is now and ever shall be a jealousy without end. Amen. Clutch 'yer pearls and deal.
Sometimes I wonder who the real martyr is around here: Saint Flo or Saint Marv [[yes that’s MARV, not Mary).Quote:

Interesting, I think Nicole is the one who found Flo unable to move in the house. I am jst not sure what else could be told that we don't know already.
I assume one of those 5 star ratings was not yours, Roberta. LOL! The author's nameQuote:

That's exactly my thought; I guess a memoir by Florence's children about their lives, becoming productive and self-sufficient without suing everyone on earth everytime Florence's name is mentioned and adjusting to living without her could be inspiring if written well, but other than that the enterprise seems unpromising; we'll see. Would be interesting to know what those who look forward to yet another exhumation of Florence's grave are expecting to read.Quote:

It would be nice to read what recollecttions the girls have of there Mom and the interactions with Mary and Diana and if they ever hear from Mr. Gordy. Lisa has a good job in Detroit. Im friends with her and Nicole on facebook. I dont think Michelle does social media. I know the see Daina and Mary when they are in Detroit and I know Diana paid for one of the girls surgery and medical care bills.Quote:

So it well may be a dignified and inspiring memoir; we'll keep our fingers crossed!Quote:

But that "Dreams of Flo" was a classic. Who knew that Florence could "belch out a song"?Quote:
