Review:
I came across this novel while visiting Books a Million located in downtown Chicago. The sales associate suggested this book to me while conversing on the topic of finding "page turning" novels from African American fictions author's.
After viewing the cover illustration, I thought to myself "everyone is trying to be like the author of Scandal, and or this book if full of nothing but steet fluff".
Then I thought " Well this novel can not be that bad of a read if a larger consensus of readers are recommending it" "Why not I'll give it a try.
According to the sales associate "most people enjoyed the novel but would have enjoyed the novel more; if the novel had more length".
If you have time constraints but would enjoy reading short novel during your transit or work break times, then I think this is a book to consider.
However, I know that length does not make a great novel; but an author how is skilled in writing techniques can make a masterpiece in 1 or 2 pages. I look forward to reviewing this novel.
REVIEW UPDATE:
Normally, I do not find interest in the urban fiction novels that involve illegal activity or the plot and structure of the "street life". However, I have to say that I enjoyed reading this novel.
While reading this book, I was able to envision the characters and the scenes with haste. Reading this novel was similar to watching a movie you just wanted to know more of the ending.
Although, I found the book as an interesting read; I could not help but to also find the novel predictable. I found myself bored and wanting to finish quickly but the ending was great.
Even though I could predict the ending results, I was shocked to find out that I was completely wrong; not about what happened in the ending but about how it happened.
Overall, this was a great short read and I would recommend this book to people who do not engaged in reading or reading urban fiction as a hobby.
Throw back Novel

Review: This was an awesome book that was recommended to me by an senior lady that I knew. We share the same interest in television shows like Dowton Abbey.
The novel engaged me with twist and turns in plot structure, and the author's skills in description was impeccable!
However don't take my word for it find out for yourself and enjoy!
Relax and enjoy your reading everyone!
