Headaches and Heartbreaks
Mahogany Princess Woods has it all! Lil Mama is so-so FLY, not to mention she's a cutie, with unlimited aspirations. As an only child "Princess" is greatly favored, and has been given things that others haven't. "Princess" knows how it is to experience a tragic loss...too bad she'll undergo extreme losses as she tries to recover from each bout...Lean back as HATERVILLE comes into full effect!
When options are none, you find that you're caught in between a rock and a hard place. After 15 wonderful years in Queens. HATERZ get shook from Brooklyn, to Queens, forty PJ's, Duplex in Rosedale, and then Greensboro North Carolina. Is this where our Princess can settle and be happy about the decisions she's made in her life?
One trifling relative after another, with envy and greed emerging in every step our Princess learns that loyalty and love don't always go well together! As the Sun begins to shine "Princess" realizes that if there's a will, then there's a way she just has to ease on down that yellow brick road! EXCEPT the RAIN seems to bring out murder, deceit, and more lies. Why is our Princess life so contrite?
Bad habits tend to linger longer...Especially when you're determined to HAVE IT ALL!
"A book by EBANDTE gotta be good!" Like always Miss Eb, is holding her position steady in the literary world! Very steamy poetry, the drama, and suspense keep you page flipping to see what's happening in the life of Mahogany Princess Woods.

This book is about a girl Mahogany Princess Woods who Lives in the projects. Her father is already dead and then her mother gets murdered. "Princess" then has to go live with her self fish Aunts and cousins. What I learned during reading this book was to never let money or anything get in between you and your family. I also learned to not trust someone before you know them for a while and not just a few months. I enjoyed reading this book.

this book is about this gurl suffering through out the hood and having family problems which all started when her mom died. she has to travel around, to find a place to live facing her aunt abusing her,her boyfriend taking advantage of her and being a hustler. what I learned from this book is that there's no point in having enemies when you have her kind of family!!

I think that this book is an amazing and inspiring book because it teaches you about life and how lessons can be learned from being in the streets and letting them take over your life, It also teaches you about trust with family and friends.I recommend this book to anyone who is in the streets and having a hard struggled life.

Had to reread this classic
I remember reading this book when I was a little girl and for some reason it was stuck in my head. Minus the typos it’s still good. I feel like this book was great for its time.
Princess stood tall despite all of the circumstances she had been through
