recommends it for:
8th grade and up
Too few books like this! African-American main characters, but none of them deal drugs, get pregnant, etc. They struggle with issues that have nothing to do with race, but language is clearly Af-Am. One graphic sex scene, but makes sense in context of story. Characters have sexual feelings and there are consequences to their actions, but they're not "bad."

it wasn't well written, but i can see how it will appeal to girls who like high drama without any sense of subtlety or imagery. i liked it because it was a. somewhat fun if predictable, and b. it was a "clique" type books for black teenage girls that didn't have pregnancy or drugs but was just fun and entertaining.

Suburban kids in a place like Detroit learning about relationships and the difference between respecting someone and acting a fool. Sometimes stilted but the plot hooks you from the start. The high school in the book is based on the school the author teaches at and it comes across as authentic.

I just finished this last night, so it's fresh in my mind right now, but I'm not sure how well it will stay with me. I liked JASON & KYRA slightly better, but I think I remember this one getting better reviews. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to a teen looking for a good romance.

lingo was kind of confusing. I love slang, but there was just too much it was distracting. I however did like the story line.

This book was alright. I still liked it but how likely is that that this will actually happen in real life????....Not likely.
