Author Zundile Funde gives us the story of senior High School student Jo venturing into a new phase in her life after the death of her father. She is an adopted black girl taken into another family as a baby. Funde shows us how Jo tries to cope with melt-downs, accidents and love for the first time and even trying to be a big sister to her little sister Skylar.
Funde’s writing surprises us with Jo growing up trying to find out who and what she is becoming as a young woman. Her writing is like air, squeezed with angst with exceptional drama do to her family situation. The characters are like water and a fresh breath of air in these pages.
Jo falls in love with the mixed up bad boy Jason and her sister falls in love with Tyler. It is a good read to show young couples starting to think on their own. Every parent prays they can protect their children when they leave the house to go to school. Funde does a good job in portraying the relationship between this newly bereaved widow and her daughters. I can relate with her music in these pages of lost and young love. This Writer will walk on water one day. Author Zundile Funde story holds up nicely as I catch my breath for Constantly Racing.

A nice coming of age story. The story starts when Jones Harrison is about to start college. She's a nice girl from a good family who like many girls do, was feeling insecure because of bullying. Her biggest "enemy" is Tara, who has tormented her for a long time.
The story really picks up when her best friend Tyler's brother, Jason, puts right some ideas that Jo had about him, and he makes it his mission to make Jo realise some truths. A feel-good story.

When her adoptive father dies she has to cope with being a big sister , finding love and the usual coming of age issues . All in all it was well written and a good read to while away a few hours .
