Facing It

Urban Underground

by Anne E. Schraff

What was the big deal? Oliver Randall was helping out two rocker friends by fronting for their band. He didn't think he was Lil Wayne. That would be arrogant. Weezy was one of a kind. But he was enjoying it more than he thought he would. And he was creating a lot of buzz for the group. Girls were practically throwing themselves at him. Marko Lane wasn't the only one giving him a hard time. Alonee Lennox, his girlfriend, was troubled too.

good

[Karyanne Torres · Rating 3 out of 5]

I would rate this book three stars. This book would be three stars because it is very interesting but not so detailed. What I mean by that is throughout the story it kept me on my toes but the events could've been more detailed.

This really is good book, but the only thing is that it need more detailing to it . Express the character problems more because they just tried to get in to the main point . so, still is a good book to read about teenagers problems.
