The story was captivating, the heroine was full of surprises, many situations were laugh-out-loud hilarious, and the plot had so many unexpected twists and turns that I couldn't put it down.
This was the first title I purchased for my brand new NOOK Color - an awesome way to christen my NOOK...and an outstanding novel by young, new author with a promising future. I can't wait for Ms. Carter's next book!

I enjoyed the reference to 16 Candles becuase that was during my youth so I identified the characters thoughts. The twiets and turns and discovery of these characters was fun and interesting as events unfolded. Cheers to Monkey Night for finding herself and growing from the pains of her past and becoming a woman. I loved it!

I was drawn to this book because it seemed like an ugly duckling becomes a swan type of story. It is. But in the most unconventional sort of way. This is a great read. I would actually read a sequel for this one and hope that it is already in the works!

There were so many quotes that I will keep from this book and so many times I had to reflect myself on incidents thaat occured in my life...such a good read on what beauty means, especially being awkward black girl!

This book came out and on a whim i bought it. Read it, and fell in love with it. I also loved the movie 16 candles so it had me deep in my feelings as well as taking a trip down memory
lane. Im glad to be able to get the book in eBook form so it can be with me everywhere i go. :)

I could NOT walk away at any point today after buying this book at 9am this mornong. Iit had me so intriqued that for the first time since the arrival of Starbucks in NYC i acrually sat down in one of their coffee shops. A well written novel of pain, abuse, love, family, violence and survival. Worth so much more than 5 stars.
I wholeheartedly recommend this novel, it is well edited and the rhythm was steady and addictive. I look forward to reading more books written by Ernessa Carter. BUY IT!

This book started great and developed the characters at a good speed. I loved Davie aka Davidia's character. Unfortunately, 3/4 through the book, i found myself getting disappointed by the scenarios that were brought forth. Stories could have been more realiastic and not so hokey. I have always been a fan of all of the "brat pack" movies and was very pleased with the last page and a half. All in all, this was a good read for our book club.

When I saw the title of the book, the first thing that came to mind was 16 Candles, therefore she must have gotten her happy ending when she turned 32. So that is what I mean by the writing on the wall. But I was totally surprised by the "Revenge" twist to the story. I did not see that trait in the character at all. I think the book took a different turn then needed at that point. I think she still could have gotten her point across and her happy ending with just an apology, although some drama is good, this drama just seemed out of character, but it still worked.
