Silver Jones is a young girl who has had a life most people wouldn’t be able to understand. She grew up without her father, and when tragedy hits home, Silver is forced to move in with a woman who hated both her and her mother… her grandma. Feeling abandoned and lonely, she sets out in the world determined to find someone to care for her. She finds love in the one person she has trusted since she was twelve years old… Chancellor Haze. With a similar childhood Chancellor finds comfort in Silver, that is until they’re separated. Once again left alone, Silver sets out to have a new life. She tries to leave the past in the past and move on, but it’s easier said than done. Will Silver find a new life and a new love, or will she be stuck in the past and forget about her future?

I rate this book a 5 because is it truly heartfelt and rememberable. This book will have you shocked from the start to the finish wondering how she survived the life she lived without giving up or asking for help. It will have you reading for hours over and over. It will touch your heart. You can picture and feel what she went through while growing up without someone to care for her.

13-year old girl named Shannon is very depressed and hates her life,family, friends and herself in general. She has been through so much in life that she wants to give up on it. She has been a victim of sexual assault. She never felt good enough for anything or felt that she truly belonged anywhere. She struggled with drinking and weight. She wanted to be skinny so badly that she nearly killed herself. She became anorexic without even knowing about what she was doing to her body. She also was caught up in compulsive exercising…then one day she had an epiphany. She needed to change her body because it wasn’t healthy for her. Will she ever get healthy and stay that way? Or will she continue to be a victim, falling back into her old sick and twisted ways?

This a biography you would enjoy reading in your spare time. I rate this book a 5 because it’s true, real and gritty. It’s a book for people to read if they don’t feel like they’re good enough for anything or anyone. It’s also a good story if you feel like you want to learn about what other people go through on a daily basis. You can see how other people’s lives differ from your own. This a true story and you should read about how Shannon lived to overcome her struggles.

This book is about a woman named Dominique who copies everything her twin sister Monique does. She will do anything to be like her and hurt anyone who stands in her way. The latest thing her sister has to offer that she wants, is her man Rafael. Even though she has a man of her own who is more danger than she is. Dominique will do all it takes to get what she wants in life including steal, lie, cheat, and harm those who are in her way of getting her new “man”. But her boyfriend Yuri isn’t letting her go that easily. Now she has to figure out how to leave her old life behind for a new one and get her sister and ex-boyfriend out of the picture.

This is a book you read if you like to be some one other than yourself. It will help you cover your tracks of pretending to be another human-being. I would rate this book at a 5 because this book is very satisfying, uplifting, and funny. Also it is drama filled and it will keep you interested until the end and wondering what will happen when all breaks loose.

You Wrong For That is about a divorced woman named Rhea who leaves her husband after she finds out he cheated with a co-worker. After months of dating a guy she was very interested with online, they meet in person and everything seems perfect….until she finds out the guy tries to hide the fact that he has children with two other women. This leaves Rhea with a conflict of whether to stay with this man that lies to her constantly or leave him. With her ex-husband still trying to win her back. Will she follow her heart and leave the man she once loved or will she stay and watch their drama unfold?

You Wrong For That is a good book if you are going through heartbreak or if you just want to read an interesting book on your day off. It’s a great advice-giving book if you are in a rough time in your life. I will have to say this book deserves a 4 because the ending was kind of confusing but it was still worth reading.

Welcome!
