The Book A+ The Narrator C+

The book was good but depressing. Every time you thought a character would overcome their situation, they didn’t. So if you’re looking for a happily ever after book, this is not it. The story was good and pulled you into their location and setting. My only struggle was with the narrator and her pronounced lisp. Not her fault but very distracting.

Riveting! Do yourself a favor and Read this!

I was hanging on to every single word! The book was captivating & spellbinding! Growing up in Chicago and loosing a parent at a young age, I was able to relate to the stories of each character in a way. I was engrossed in each character's persona, and obsessed with the potential they each possed. The twist and turns had me on edge the entire time. Please read this book!

WoW what an amazing story!!!!

I love the story from start to finish, had me on the edge of my seat; felt like I was on a roller coaster ride. God bless you Tracy Brown.
