I loved how this book dealt with real topics about being black in America and how white girls treat black girls and how society sparks the race cards about being a girl and being black how you're suppose to be have to your fellow girls you see on the street and it really blew my mind how white people behaved and what I found interesting how this book was set in the 90's because you felt a lot of it in the book which made me felt I was in the 90's myself I found capturing for Reed first debut I was in love my tiny problem I had was the beginning for me was quite slow but after reading on everything was fine.
