I'm giving this two stars because the plot itself is okay. With another author at the reins it could have been an outstanding book. I haven't looked yet to see when this was published but I have a feeling it was the first one from Stephanie Johnson- I know she's still writing and she has more books out and if they are all like this- they wouldn't be bought, which they are so I'm sure she grew into her writing. There are some great conversations between characters and and the characters themselves only need minimal help, if any. It's the writing style mostly and just some other implausible parts of the book here and there. Part of me wants to give it a one but I can't say honestly that I didn't like it because I kept on the look out for redeeming qualities and actually found some. I will finish the last twenty or so pages and I will try another book by Johnson. I wouldn't recommend anyone running out to pick this up though.
**I just found out she wrote Married To The Badge which was a much beer book than this. MTTB isn't the best piece of fiction out there and I can't remember what I gave it star-wise but can still remember the characters and what the book was about and for me, as much as I read, that means it was good!
The book She’s Got Issues is a great book, I think it is trying to relate a message saying that even though you are hurting deeply inside you shouldn’t take it out on others. In this book Sinclare's "best friend" ruined her life by trying to take her husband. Now Sinclare was trying to get revenge. i think that even though her best friend hurt her she shouldnt do the same. She should be the better person and be an adult about things, because that makes her the same thing she called her best frind a back stabber.
There are several messages in this book. Aliette was looking for love in all the wrong places and the wrong people. I have listed below the messages that I believe are of value as small child, preeteen, teenager and as an adult.
1. You have to love yourself before you can love anyone and before anyone can love you.
2. You and only you can tell/show someone who to treat you.
This is a great book it kept me intrigued through out it all. I literally finished it in two days. It had realistic conflict that happen between women revolving around betrayal and men. My favorite character was Sinclair for the way she handled her self in the situation. Although she wanted vengeance on the women who betrayed her in the end she handled herself with grace and helped her enemy.
It was a drama book and is probably really inappropriate, but besides that it is really interesting about two friends that meet and start to fight and have issues. One of the friends is thriving revenge on the other from the past.
