Negative Positive
Title: Sorry, very dissapointed
Review: I bought this book, started reading, was amazed it ever got published, put it down, picked it up again and reconfirmed my opinion. I thought the writing was simple and pedantic. Her story didn't add up in some cases. (she's slicing him up in the kitchen and her brother doesn't wake up?,)It spoke to a limited group, primarily black women living in the hood. I work with these women, they're not going to read this book. I found the vernacular to be pandering. There was no hope in this book. I found myself more frustrated than connected with the author. I wanted to hear about her journey of self-discovery, God-discovery and all I read was "poor me".
