"Oooookay," she stretched our her reply.

"Oooookay," she stretched out her reply.
That sentence appeared in a dead-tree book I'm reading. When I read the sentence, it came across to me as rhyming with "Booo-kay." Not sure how I would have written it to get what I think the sound should be, rhyming with "Boh-kay," but which does not stretch out the word.
How would you write it?

You mean like "Ooohkay"?

Agreed, in my brain, ooohkay sounds like oo in ooze to me.

Ohhhkay sounds like oh.
