This book was upsetting, especially the ending. It was also psychologically believable.

Disappointing, but on par for this author. The amount of unnecessary trauma/drama thrown into this story left a bad taste in my mouth towards all Tiffany D. Jackson books. 

How much can I witness one character be dragged through before I can no longer suspend disbelief? 

Seems like she just enjoys torturing her characters. 

The amount of colorism, racism, fat shaming, ableism, false 'mental health' representation, abuse, mentions of rape and molestation, inappropriate sexual relationships, stereotypes, and just downright torture for shock value that took place in this book - disgusting.

4.5

Tiffany Jackson is now an auto buy author for me. 4.5 stars. 

This book was incredible. I read it in 2 hour increments each day. I couldn’t put it down. 

Mary allegedly murdered a 3-month old baby named Alyssa Richardson when she was 9. She ends up going to “baby jail” and then a group home with other girls like her. 

That’s all I have to say. Read this book.
