"Right now, we live in an era where women in the spotlight are getting praised for outsmarting and playing men, "taking back their power if you will," and I have no doubt that there are people who will be cheering for Miss Payne and saying "yasss, Doris" over the course of this autobiography"- So Booking Cool.
