IWOW! Really that one word describes this book. There were laugh out loud parts of this book and just plain jaw dropping parts. It took less than 2 days to read because I just couldn't put it down. I had to know what was going to happen next.
This book makes a person, especially a feamle think about a lot of self determination. It is a good thing that these females have to will power to get out of the hood, but it is the independants that matter. I think thier dependancy, or "plan" for getting out by latching on to a man is not really a good thing. Like the fact that the a mother with 5 children cant depend on anyone of her children's fathers is bad. But if a female is really determined, she can do it on her own. I have heard often
This book kept me on my toes the whole time and i enjoyed reading this book . The ending with Lexi, luther, and Junior I didn't expect and was super shocked to see that Happen, she was actually the one I expected a happy ending with and Sad but true things like that are happening around the world ! I really despised Junior so everything that happened to him was for a reason he was a snake and deserved it, I felt sorry for Molly she was just blind in Love. Aisha , I had a little hope for but you
Full of twist and turnsI didnt think I would be able to read this book. I dont like reading different characters stories through out a book but each persons story was a page turner. Loved it
My Spring Brake Read. (April 15 and Finished April 17)Overall book was great. Wished it was lots more drama in it like Shameless Hoodwives and Hood Life. But, have to admit I still kept turning the pages.Aisha was a miss know it all thinking she better then everyone around her because of the money, clothes and her man. But, he ends up locked up and she had to fiend for herself to be able to keep living the life she only knew how but, al the end everything exploses in her face. Her pass comes and
*****The Scarlet LetterDFWM....The characters really compliment each other and each are unique and bring their own personalities to the story. I actually grinned, laughed out loud because I felt a part of the story - truly an amazing feeling to be so immersed like this, and I enjoyed every minute of it!
