I received this book for my daughter,but oh wow!!! Great book from the very beginning ,non stop read. Great book for my daughter 12yrs ,as it is very poignant as it shows how life's heartbreak and ups and downs for a teenager can be overcome with positive thinking. Very compelling story of life today for a young black girl's stride into adulthood. Absolutely ,a "GREAT BOOK"!!!

It's a difficult book to read as it does force the rerader to contend with issues of colorism. A reader's personal experience will obviously inform the impact of the text; but, the writer slowly and effectively develops strong character portrayals that are thought provoking.
