This book had the perfect title. It was stupid. I didn’t like it at all. This book seems to be very elementary a lot of “I said and then she said “ and “best friend” 🤦🏾‍♀️ not the book series for me

Annoying!!

This book was VERY annoying!! The dialog was amateurish "best friend this and best friend that", on top of the misuse of the English language (what did he said)...just ANNOYING!! Murk...really?? Your 15-year old sister in law?? I actually had to see who the author was and realized she is very young and this is her first book....but even the the storyline has me curious, I will not purchase part 2. Hopefully, the author has matured and the editing is much better....but no can do!!

Bad business...

Poor Shonique just young, dumb, and naïve. I wish it didn't end the way it did; I'm left hanging.The book is pretty ok, but the grammar is not! It's written like a third grader wrote it. If it was revised I would keep it and reread it, but as of now I'm returning this purchase.

???

I gave this book two stars because of all of the misspelled words and grammar errors. The story line was interesting but it was not a hot read. The only reason I finished reading this book is because I always complete books.

Couldn’t even finish it

This book read like it was written by a twelve year old. An illiterate twelve year old at that. If you cannot afford an editor, at least let a local high schooler proof read it for you. I can’t believe anyone allowed their name to be attached to this nonsense.

This book was alright, perhaps book two will be better.

I believe neither of the main characters have any moral compass. Naturally, what I expected to happen in deed happen at the very end.

Editor

For the author to have been as young as she was when this was published, it was a good storyline. I do wish the editor had taken time to actually proofread. The grammatical errors killed it for me. I ended up flipping to the end.

Better than what I expected

My title basically explains how I feel about this book. There was a few grammar mistakes, but it did not ruin the book.

Ok book.

The grammar sucked. So many words were misspelled. But other than that it was ok. Best I could say was ok.

This series was interesting. I think the protagonist Shonique was dealt a "bad hand". From her unlikely parentage to the fallout from poor decisions and lack of parental or positive adult guidance. I think this could be and is the story of many of our lost youth. I liked the messaging. The low score is due to all of the technical issues that kept pulling me out of the story that made for a bit of a frustrating read. I did appreciate the very end that shows a bit of growth and redemption for our young Shonique.

Hard to read

The grammar was terrible. The needed to be in jail for having sex with a child. I know things like this happens, however he needs to be dealt with.

Decent storyline

A lot of spelling mistakes where you have to use context clues to figure out what the author is trying to say, decent read

Cheated

I feel like this was a good story, with a lot of potential. I am very disappointed in the publishing company for not doing their job and releasing this book with all these errors. This was the most ridiculously edited book I have ever read. Shame on you True Glory for properly editing this authors book. Taking away from what could have been the a 4 star book to me.....I see a lot of people talking bout the best friend use, I have a 14 yr old so I'm used to that, didn't bother me at all. De'sha I'm sorry I had to take away stars, but your team really cheated you

Very horrible!!

First of all creepy as storyline. Your main character is a child being molested by her sisters husband. Wow! Poor editing. Very terrible grammar. Over use of "best friend " . Just sucky all round. Very terrible book. Glad it was free. You should shoot your editor because they failed you. You need more practice.. spelling , grammar and editing practice. Sheesh.

Good book overall, bad grammar though

The book is a pretty good book overall, however the grammar is all the way messed up, it irritated me the whole time... then again the girl is only 17,
whoever published this book should have gone over it better

Booooooo

I couldn't even finish the book. The author did not write that well at at its like a run on sentence. I might've enjoyed it if I wasn't for that.
Plus the punctuation was all over the place.

MAJOR FAILURE!!!

This was a good book. I'm getting ready to read part 2. I don't want to give the book away but never side with the enemy over blood.

Never true the saying enemies are in your own household

Alcohol destroyed this family and the lost innocence of this child was just pure wickedness. I can't wait to read part 2.
