Are you looking for a good read that gives a modern day unconventional spin on a Romeo & Juliet type of love story? Makes you feel the highs and lows of reality? Makes you fall in love with or dislike characters? Then Authoress Miss Candice’s “Us Against Everybody” is a must read for you.
Two people from different places in life cross paths and become inseparable. Faced with obstacles that are destined to keep them apart they embark on a journey unsure if they will survive through it all. Their bond becomes so deep that it becomes a game of Us Against Everybody. The question is who will win in the end?
First, I would like to say that I like books that are different and not your typical “urban/hood” story. I like those that step outside of the box to write from a different perspective/standpoint. With that being said, I have read all of Miss Candice’s books and love them all. So there was no question I had to get this book.
Secondly, this book had me so enthralled and engaged from page one until the end. At one point, I tried to go to sleep but couldn’t because I wanted to know what happened. I stayed up and finished the book the same night. Miss Candice has a way with words that makes you feel as though you are there living it with the characters. The flow of this book was just right not too fast and not too slow. The editing issues as usual was minimal. This book keeps you guessing as to what was going to happen next and is not the predictable love story that you may expect. Vice & Storm have a relationship that makes you realize that love makes you do and act in the most unexplainable ways. I thought of the mixture of #HoodLove and Let It Burn by Jazmine Sullivan as a possible theme song for them.
Do you want to experience a range of emotions? Do you want to remain captivated until the end? Then this is a must read. I will not say much about the characters for you need to read this for yourself to fully grasp it all especially with Vice and Storm. My new favorite couple! The ending will leave you in shock and demanding the sequel ASAP! Miss Candice, you have done it again Awesome!
