I really enjoyed this book. I went into this book blind and just solely off the title so at first I was taken aback but baby I was tuned in!!!

This was such a; for lack of better word frustrating read!! I felt so badly for Annette. I just wished she would’ve let someone in. Annette really had nobody in this book, not even her mama!

I’m glad that Annette began to find her way at the end!

This was an amazing story!
