This book was amazing. At first i did not really like it, but then it started to get a little interesting because the main character, Imani started to talk about how bad her life is, not knowing her mother, how her father is always working and she only has her grandmother that is always in her room. She had a lot of problems until she met this guy named Maurice. They started to go out and Imani realized that he really cared for her, especially since everything went out of control when she made a

This book was very realistic and kept me reading. It's about teenage cousins; one white (Kayla), and one black (Imani), who starts an internet hook-up site to try and find someone to go to the prom with.

What I learned from this book is that everything online is not as safe as it should be or assumed to be.
