Tamika believes her mother lives in a perfect world - being an adult, with money and the ability to make decisions. Unfortunately for Laura, it doesn't feel that way. Unemployed and concerned about her marriage, she's looking for ways to reinvent and improve herself.

I think this book is good, so good that you can't even put it down. In this book its Tamika last day of school and her boyfriends dumps her and her best friend named Lisa moves away so now she don't have nobody. As for her mother while her father goes on a monthly business trip so she is stuck for two weeks with her mother in Georgia. Its embarrassing because while they down south Tamika mother Laura tries to be young again by partying with her old friends and getting drunk.
Tamika is forced to go on a trip to the south with her mother. But with the reminder of her boyfriend dumping her and her betfriend moving away she's noy up to it. Then her mother seems to think she's on Mom's goin wild. Now She has to act like the adult and try and figure out if she can snap he mom out of it.

YA--part of the new genre of African American teen fiction. The major theme is the conflict between mother and daughter--set in today's landscape. The family is middle class and the mother has to go South to close up the family home and drags her daughter with her.

SO FAR IN THIS BOOK THE GIRL IN MY BOOK HAS AN BEST FRIEND THAT SHE TEXT TO AND SHE IS NOT IN THAT GOOD OF AN RELASHIONSHIP WITH HER MOTHER AND SHE IS IN THE 10th NOT DONE
i learned that u should be very thankful because when u loose it ur going to be sad so think about what u do before you do it.
Interesting story about the ever changing relationship between a teenager and her mother. Loved it!
i learned to listen to your my and dont get mad at her
its good so far
It was pretty weird how the protagonist's mom wanting to be a sixteen-year-old again. It's understandable that the mother didn't have the opportunity to live her life as a teen, but still, it's just the fact that she's finally realized, that her young years, are over. On the other hand, you do look young if you feel young.

so far from what I've read, the differences between the mother and daughter are so realistic. everybody goes through the same thing where you and your parents just don't get along. I think everyone who reads this book can relate right off the back.
This is a real good book. It's like real life. A daughter and mother that are having problems. Every thing gets worse when she takes a trip with her mom to her grandmothers house.
what i learned about is noting right now becaue i just stared to read this book
It was ok.
