Good short story..

I read this book because at the end of Dope Girl part 1, Jackie meets Cameisha(Tywanna). You are right, Sa'id! Great writing skills by the author is how the meet!! This was a short story but a good read. I'm excited to get back to the Dope Girl series! I stop reading part 2, so that I could get to know Jackie as well as I know Meisha! I love how you connected Cameisha to Cam and Killa! Write on brother, write on!! I love all your books!

brainwashed

This entails the life of a broken young woman who has been totally brainwashed by the man that she loved. He was her protector at a young age, and then he totally turned on her using the same. Verbiage that the children use to hurt her to tear her down and she kept doing his bidding, including killing people with no thought to the hurt. She was doing to herself.
