It's sad but True🤔 the one's closes to Us r the one's that cause Us so much Pain..This book was good from start to Finish. It's just sad how we treat each other & be so Envious and Jealous of one another for No reason. Be it looks or Material stuff. When we should All realize that Nothing on planet earth Belongs to Us, Because We Are All on BORROWED TIME 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

FAST PACED URBAN NOVEL

THIS BOOK WAS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD, AND ALOT BETTER THAN I EXPECTED. THIS BOOK WAS HARD FOR ME TO PUT DOWN ONCE I GOT INTO IT. THIS BOOK IS ABOUT A YOUNG GIRL NAMED KAMONE, WHO HAS LITERALLY BEEN USED AND ABUSED BY EVERYONE WHO WAS ANYONE IN HER LIFE. HER MOTHER WAS AN HIV POSITIVE, CRACK HEAD, [...], WHOM WAS JEALOUS OF HER DAUGHTER KAMONE. SHE LEFT KAMONE AND HER HER TWO SIBLINGS, KAMONE WAS FORCED BY HER MOTHERS MADAME (PIMP) INTO A LIFE OF [...]. SHE WAS MANIPULATED TO GO MAKE MONEY OR HERSELF AND HER SIBLINGS WOULD BE REPORTED TO CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES AND BE SEPERATED. KAMONE WENT OUT INTO THE MEAN STREETS, AND INDULGED IN COCAINE TO COPE WITH TURNING TRICKS, THE OTHER [...] ON THE BLOCK WERE JEALOUS OF HER BECAUSE SHE WAS YOUNG, PRETTY , AND FRESH MEAT. ONE OF THE OTHER [...] ON THE STREETS SET KAMONE UP TO BE BEATEN AND RAPED, AND INJECTED WITH HEROIN , AND SHE WAS LEFT FOR DEAD IN A DUMPSTER. KAMONE WAS FOUND BY A MAN NAMED LUCCI. LUCCI TOOK KAMONE IN AND SHELTERED HER, AND GREW TO LOVE HER. LUCCI WAS A BIG TIME DRUG DEALER, WHO LAVISHED KAMONE WITH EVERYTHING, AND RAISED HER TWO YOUNGER SIBLINGS AS HIS OWN CHILDREN. LUCCI WAS THE ONLY MAN KAMONE EVER MET WHOM DIDN'T ABUSE HER AND THROW HER OUT FOR DEAD! LUCCI'S TWIN BROTHER DAVID, IS A REAL MANIAC. HE HIMSELF IS THE DEVIL IN SHEEPS CLOTHING.

HE IS SICK AND TWISTED AND WILL MANIPULATE, AND DO ANYTHING, INCLUDING ABUSING HER TO HAVE HER, AND HE IS WILLING TO LIE CHEAT STEAL AND EVEN KILL HIS BROTHER TO GET TO HIS WOMAN.OVERALL THIS WAS A FAST PACED READ. IT WAS SUSPENSFUL AND HAD BIZARRE TWISTS THAT YOU DONT SEE COMING! I THINK READERS WILL ENJOY THIS BOOK, I DID!!

I READ THIS BOOK IN ONE DAY NOT BECAUSE IT WAS SHORT BUT BECAUSE I HAD TO KNOW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT. YOU WILL CRY,LAUGH AND FIGHT TO SURVIVE WITH KAMONE AS SHE STRUGGLES TO TAKE CARE OF HER SELF AND HER SISTER AND BROTHER. KAMONE NEVER HAD A CHILD HOOD SHE WENT FROM PLAYING WITH DOLLS TO BEING TREATED LIKE A STREET DOLL FOR ALL TO PLAY WITH.

THA BOMB

THIS IS AN AWESOME BOOK...I WASN'T GOING TO GET IT WHEN I SAW THE TITLE-I GUESS YOU CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK BY THE TITLE...BUT I'M GLAD I PICKED IT UP...KAMONE BEEN THROUGH ALOT...SHE MET LUCCI, WHO WAS ABOUT HER AND HER SIBLINGS...AND SHE OVERCAME ALL THE ADVERSITY IN HER LIFE...KUDOOS TO TANIKA LYNCH....KEEP DOING YOUR THING, GIRLFRIEND.

Don't let the title fool you!!!

I can't say enough about this book..at first I thought ok here is the same ol TCP book..but I definitely judged wrong. Ms. Lynch has taken us into Kamone's world..who endured and struggled through a horrible childhood...she was used abused and mistreated but she still persevered and did what she had to do to make sure her and her siblings had just the basics...kudos to Ms. Lynch for writing a story that you could relate to and identify with..it wasn't about the bling or material items..just one persons desire to be genuinely loved and not have to give anything in return..if you haven't read this book..don't let the title fool you..this is a hot joint that needs to be read..much love and continued success Ms. Lynch!!1

It's a miserable life....but an outstanding read!!!!!!!

Tanika Lynch deserves a standing ovation for this captivating tale of misery that engulfs you and pulls you through the wringer with the central character, a young abused teenager named Kamone. Kamone has suffered just about any type of abuse you can imagine but holds true to her lifelong love for her siblings to fight until the very end to assure their well being and safety. She will pull at your heartstings making it skip a few beats, you will become breathless, matter of fact, you will have to put the book down a couple of times to get yourself together. That's just how good this book is! Tanika's story seems like one of the bunch, but, I assure you the journey she takes you on will be one of the most memorable ones that you will ever have the privilege of traveling. Tanika Lynch most definitely deserves 10 stars for this wonderful literary piece of art! I applaud you Ms. Lynch and will mos def be in line for your future endeavors!!!!!!! Your light is shining!
