The Book Is Called Don't Let My Mama Read This By Hadjii. It's A Memoir/Biography. This Book Is Mainly About How Some Boy Boy Named Hadjii Talks About Growing Up In The South And How His Family Is. He Uses A Sense Of Humor In All The Chapters. He Even Talks About How Black People Act, His Troubles As A Kid In Elementary School And A Teenager In High School. The Setting Is Mainly In His House, And Church In The South. He Gives Truth To The Situation But In A Comical Way. I Thought The Book Was Ok

At times completely hilarious . . . at others only mildly amusing . . . and at yet others, so beyond reality as to be almost boring.

If you ever had a childhood where some grownup has aggravated you, you will understand where Hadjii is coming from. Knowing you would never, ever say to an adult the the things you want to say when you're little, nobody can stop you from thinking them. Hadjii is absolutely insane (I wrote him and told him so). I think he agrees! I laughed til tears "came out" my eyes.

This is probably the funniest work of non-fiction I have ever read. It takes a look into the life of a african-american boy living in the south. This true story is laced with so much humor, I almost spewed soda out my nose just reading it.

I LOVED this book. Delcious to read, laugh outloud funny, and quirkily bruatlly honest about growing up as a black boy in the 80's. A great read for everyone.
