I liked it. it was better than Trae's letter. it was more detailed and was like a mini story. I can't wait til the next book (already read Honor Thy Thug) comes out.

FIRST OFF, THE FEMALE NARRATOR HAD TO HAVE BEEN FROM THE EAST COAST, PREFERABLY FROM NY OR NEW JERSEY GOING BY HER ACCENT. IT WAS A BIT DISTRACTING AS SHE READ FOR TASHA, TRINA, & ANGEL. BUT, I STILL ENJOYED BITS & PIECES OF THE RESPONSE BETTER THAN THE LETTER BECAUSE I FELT TASHA HAD MORE TO SAY THAN HER HUSBAND.
TASHA COULD HAVE RESPONDED TO TRAE'S PARAGRAPHED NOTE (PLEASE! THAT WAS NOT A LETTER! IT WAS MORE LIKE A PARAGRAPH ON A POST IT!) BY JUST SAYING FOUR WORDS: I WANT A DIVORCE"! BUT, SHE TOLD HIM HOW SHE FELT ABOUT MOST OF THE STUFF HE'D DONE TO HER, THEN WENT ON TO TELL HIM THAT SHE WANTED HIM BACK & THE TRAE SHE MARRIED BACK, & IF HE WAS WILLING TO ACT RIGHT WHAT KIND OF RELATIONSHIP & MARRIAGE THEY SHOULD ABIDE BY.
I FELT TASHA WAS WEAK FOR TAKING TRAE BACK AFTER HE HAD BEAT THE CRAP OUTTA HER, ALMOST KILLED HER, THEN CAME WITH THAT CRAPPY POST IT NOTE POSING AS A LETTER!
THOUGH I WAS ANNOYED THAT TASHA LET HER TWAT & TEARS GET IN THE WAY OF HER MOVING ON FROM TRAE, WHO SMUGLY BELEIVED THAT HE HAD A RIGHT TO MISTREAT THE WOMAN WHO HAD GIVEN HIM THE CHANCE HE'D BEGGED HER FOR IN ETNAL & HAD GIVEN BIRTH TO THEIR NOW-FOUR KIDS.
I WAS DISAPPOINTED IN TASHA FOR CRYING BECAUSE SHE FELT TRAE HAD BEEN IGNORING HER, THEN HOW SHE ALLOWED HIM TO SEDUCE THEN SEX HER INTO SUBMISSION.
BUT, WHAT REALLY PISSED ME OFF WAS JUDGMENTAL ANGEL CALLING TASHA TO BERATE HER ON WHAT TRAE HAD SHARED(HIS SAD EXCUSE OF AN APOLOGY LETTER) ON SOCIAL MEDIA, AS IF IT HAD BEEN TASHA'S FAULT WHAT HER HUSBAND POST ON HIS SOCIALS & EVEN WORSE, THAT TASHA HAD TO ANSWER TO ANGEL ABOUT WHAT TRAE POSTS ON SOCIALS!
I WISHED ANGEL WOULD'VE STAYED OUT OF THIS BOOK ALTOGETHER, EVEN THOUGH SHE'D SHARED UNWITTINGLY WITH TASHA THAT TRAE ALMOST KILLED KYRON SANTOS.
ON TO SH*T JUST GOT REAL!

This couple was my favorite couple I'm disappointed because their sugar turned to shit. Even though I'm from California I gotta say LA was a bad move for both of them. Every thug. Needs a Lady is my favorite book I've read it just as much as I read my other favorite book (the notebook).

I guess it’s the woman in me but I felt tf outta this letter. The love is still and will always be there.

This was better than Trae’s letter. More detailed and it made you want more.
