What the eff Octavia??? I often wonder what goes on in the mind of Ms. Octavia Grant or should I say Olivia Graham? Because I know she got some sorta SSI disability check when she was a kid bc how does her mind go to these places? The prologue: Olivia is a walking, talking, living, breathing psycho! A bag of nuts! Octavia, girl...this you? Story 1: soft launch of the craziness to come. Story 2: truly toxic! Story 3: CRAZY!!! Also unfortunate. I felt so bad for Brian. My boy went out sad. Story 4: I hate that for Melinda and her daughter but payback is a bee and they unfortunately belonged to the wrong bloodline. Story 5: it really did suck to be Leon. Whole story was crazy. Story 6: made me clinch my body parts. It should've been called "deranged". Story 7: probably the most true to life story. Especially in the age and era of social media. But you should always be kind to people bc you don't know their story. Overall, loved all the stories. Great book. And as delulu as Ms. Grant is I clearly am as well bc I keep buying her books 😂
