its okay

this book was just okay. the dialogue was flat and hard to get through. i normally read books in less than a day but this took me 2 weeks to finish. i wish i could get a refund.

HATED IT!

This book was so boring that after reading 169 pages I just skipped to the last chapter to get it over with. This is the 2nd book that I've attempted to read by this author so obviously I won't be reading any more!

Very Nostalgic!!!

I am from Philly and in reading the book, I was able to picture everything that the author was saying and describing. I live in cali now and when I am homesick, I can refer back to that book. He captures the very essence of a Philly attitude in teenagers.

this book should be past down from generation to generation!!

I read this book when i was 13 years old,i'm now 19 and i still read it over and over. This book truly is what ever african amercan girl goes through growing up!! But it also very universal.anyway i still can't belive a man wrote this,omar tyree was on point,and i think every young girl should read this,this book is whats up for real!!!

It's a nice read

This book is about a little girl named Tracy growing up in the 80's. I like the evolution that the character under goes through out the story. And it touches on the good and bad side of life. Not everything in reality comes out good. The book is a little to long for me. I feel like somethiings could have been left out. But all in all it was a nice book to read. I liked it.

I 3 this book

I absolutely adored this book. My older sister was reading it a couple years ago and I found it one day and secretly started reading it. After two days when I was well into the book, my sister found out and to my surprise, let me continue reading it. We would stay up late discussing this intriguing story. Now that I am a little older and can understand the book a little better I plan to read it again. I remember not being able to stop reading and had to (almost literally) be pulled away from it. I would recommend this book to anyone (but it does get kind of explicit at times).

NOT THAT GREAT

The book started off slow got good in the middle then nothing else happened. The only reason why i think people said it was good was because how fast tracy was. This book is nothing compared to the coldest winter ever!!! if anyone knows of a book as good as the coldest winter ever please hit me up!!!

Amazing Book for Young Girls

Im so glad to have read this book when i was a teen, it kept me from making some mistakes, every teen girl growing up in an urban neighbirhood shoulf read this.

Flyy

It is perfect

*For an idiot

*This book stinks. The first smutty scene described was of a thirteen year old. Not only was that disturbing, but on the same page (34 on ebook) he detailed something specific about it, he completely forgot, and re-described it the opposite. All of the female characters mimic one another, and in the first chapter alone there are loads of unnecessary quarrels that come out of nowhere with no build up. Just about all of them are eager to be mean for no reason. To make matters worse he repeatedly spelled uh uh, shut up, and uh huh wrong! This book is for idiot teens who are happy to say they read something. It is so over-rated, and I'm disgusted with myself for wasting 7 bucks on all the hype. I can think of about a dozen other things I could've done with it.

An "Okay" book

This book was not so interesting. Its no climax yet and im on page 200..

My first author

A great book

I read dis book years ago and it was truly an page turner!

Terrible!!

This is my first and last time reading a novel by Omar Tyree. I always finish what I start but this is one book that I could no longer bear to read. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. If you really want to read it, borrow it from the library.

The first book I read by Omar Tyree

I totally love this book. I feel bad for the girl how her parents slit up that way her dad couldn't handle having a great family...

I wish I could give this book no stars

OMG! WHERE DO I BEGIN?? THIS BOOK WAS BEYOND BORING. IT HAD NO PLOT AND NO PURPOSE. I HAVE NO CLUE HOW A BOOK CAN BE SO OVERRATED! PPL WERE TELLING OH THE BOOK IS GOOD. WHEN I FIRST STARTED READING I WAS COMPLAINING BCUZ THE BOOK HAS OVER 400 PAGES AND BY PAGE 189 IT STILL DID NOT GET INTERESTING. I WANTED SO BADLY TO PUT IT DOWN BUT I KEPT READING ONLY TO FIND THAT THERE WAS NO MOMENT OF HYPE. THIS IS HONESTLY THE WORST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ. AND I READ OVER 5 BOOKS A MONTH. THIS WILL DEFINITELY BE MY FIRST AND LAST BOOK BY OMAR TYREE. IT WAS LIKE EVERY TIME YOU THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS GONNA JUMP OFF IT TURNED OUT TO BE NOTHING!!!! TRACY'S MOM AND DAD HAD BEEF WITH EACH OTHER FOR REASONS NOT CLEAR ENOUGH. I AM STILL CONFUSED AS TO WHY HER DAD WAS THE WAY HE WAS DESPITE THE BRIEF REASON STATED AT THE END BETWEEN TRACY AND HER DAD. THIS BOOK IS SEVERLY UNDERDEVELOPED. THERE WERE SO MANY OTHER THINGS THAT COULD HAVE AND SHOULD HAVE TAKEN PLACE TO MAKE THE BOOK INTERESTING. THIS BOOK WAS SO UNDER MY LEVEL THAT I WAS UPSET WITH MYSELF FOR BUYING IT. I AM USED TO GOOD BOOKS BY NOIRE, CARL WEBER, ANNA J, ASHLEY ANTOINETTE, ASHLEY & JAQUAVIS, JAQUAVIS COLEMAN, KEITH LEE JOHNSON, MEESHA MINK & DE'NESHA DIAMOND. OMG THIS BOOK IS A TRIP. I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN HAD. 400 PAGES OF TRASH. I'M TALKING BELOW POVERTY LEVEL TRASH!!!!!! UGGHHH I GIVE UP!!

Speechless

This book is absolutley a 'page turner'. A MUSTBREAD!!!
