If you want a good story that stays on track, keeps your interest and is straight to the point, then this is the book. Janaya takes the reader direct to the subject matter-the abusive, drugged-out, traumatized world of Marion Hayes. In this character the reader will find a bit of herself in some components of Marion. Sister, caretaker, confused, sensitive and striving to survive when the odds seem stacked against her. The great thing about this book is that in 153 pages the author succeeded in telling a complete, simple story. From start to finish you continually capture the characters origin to her demise. It does not take you off into boring tangents or convoluted mixes of characters connected to other characters and so forth. You can read this book in one day straight -granted you can get a day alone without any disturbances. This is an excellent short story and well worth the read
Have not read it, but the preview kept me wanting more!!!!!

I know the author personally, and if she writes as well as she sings, then "we've got the next best thang ya'll!" I mean, she is an educated, influential black Woman with a mind of her own. She knew what she wanted to do and she accomplished it. GON JANAYA:)I will definitly be buying this book and any others she writes!!!!!
THE BREAKING POINT

EXCELLENT BOOK. FOR ME IT WAS EASY TO SEE HOW SOMEONE WITH A LIFE OF TRAGEDIES CAN EASILY SNAP. A VERY BELIEVEABLE STORY THAT SOMEHOW IN THIS DAY AND AGE IS MORE NON-FICTION THAN FICTION. LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE BOOKS FROM THIS AUTHOR.
"Finally... something unpredictable"

When I began reading this book, I had the hardest time putting it down. Every page turned was a new adventure into this woman's life. This book made me laugh. It made me cry. It made me angry. From the very beginning to the final page, the author demanded my attention....and received it fully. I had no idea where she was taken me, but her words were so powerful, that I graciously followed. And in the end, I was glad that I did. The ending was, for once, unpredictable. This is coming from someone who knew the outcome to The Usual Suspects and the Sixth Sense from the first showing. So trust me on this one guys! I have been looking for more books by this author. I heard that this was the beginning of a three part series. If anyone has heard of any other books by Janya Black, please let me know. I absolutely loved this book!!! I would recommend it to anyone who is in the mood for a good suspense tale.
5 stars all the way!!
