Oh, so they cracking backs out the gate.

I’m about to add this to my DNF list. I’m in chapter 7 and still like what the hell am I reading. Can’t say it’s a bad book but it’s definitely not holding my attention

The interaction between Menace and Don
"Mens, you sick?"
"You wishing death on me, Don?"
I chuckled. "Nah, never that. Just ain't never heard you sound so choked up, pussy."
He snorted. "Why you hate my son, Don?"
"Menace, the fuck you chatting about?"
He sighed into the phone, as I sat on the edge of a lounge chair. "Dennis told me he felt some kind of way." had me crying laughing

Emotional roller coaster indeed. I didn’t expect Judge Stone to let Bria go but I definitely agreed with it

So her mom wasn’t dead after all, but she had literally replaced her. She had a whole new child with someone else and named that girl Annie Kay also. Ani spent her whole life looking for a woman that did not care about her and moved on and replaced her with another child +2. My heart hurts for her and the marriage between Franklin Vernice feels very weak and fake. I also don’t like Franklin‘s mama.

Annie did all this just to find our her mom died a month before she decided to walk to her door. Poor Annie

A love affair between Vernice with Franklin and Joette is a wild concept

Vernice being in a relationship with Joette is not a super shock because it felt like she was attracted to Annie as well

Annie and Bobo was unexpected but makes sense. I was actually bothered that Vernice lost her bags behind the bus situation so the white passing cousin (Marylinda) helping her get them back was a nice touch.

Memphis being sick with cancer when she fought to ensure she would never get it by going as far as a full hysterectomy while in college just to end up with another form of it. Sad to be honest

Reese ain’t ever been shit smh

The relationship between Chris and Mallory was evident it would come back around, I just hate that it was after Eric died.
The real drama is that finding out his mom was alive when he graduated. I felt like she was alive when Doug gave him the cryptic call but wow she was alive when he graduated HS and he was so sure she was dead!!

I didn’t expect that ending. I get it but definitely didn’t see this as the ending. Loved this book so much

Having to tell her what happened that night he met her. Her shock and confusion of it all. A drunk night for her was the night he fell in love. He respected her even in a drunken state when most would have taken advantage.
