Customer Reviews

I loved the book because I knew all the places .

I went to High School with Gloria, and I never knew that she had such a work in her. I found myself not being able to put it down. The book has such an easy reading style, and quite funny too, (especially the loss of hair segment). I knew many of the places that she referred to, as I said I was raised in that town also. Her references to lifestyle and struggles after childhood were quite profound. I would reccommend that anyone of any race read the book, because It was quite enjoyable. Gloria Watkins
