i LOVED this book oh my gosh i (almost) cried so many times and it was just such a REAL portrayal of feelings that i think all black women have about dating (and white boys - special thanks to my ex for making it specially relatable!!) but it was just such a special piece of literature and i would recommend EVERY TIME! i won't lie, it did take me a bit of time to get into it and the first half of the book was most definitely more challenging to get through than the second but all in all i did really enjoy it

Quite good actually, bit hard to get into. Very relatable in certain aspects, eye opening in others. Not a beach read tho.
