Can anyone really say they get it how they live? Can anyone really make this comment to someone and mean it? Do you even know what get it how you live means?Enter into this story without any preconceived notions based on the title. The title is not just a title but a way of life for the characters in this book. Shantae is the main character and let's just say this is not your average hood chick, side chic,  or chic period. Her story is not one for the faint of heart, nor does it change who we are introduced to at all. She kept the same mentality with growth spurts as she grew up. Shantae didn't change or get new stripes as some tend to do.The male characters in this book were something else. Each one had something that you either loved or hated, no grey matter. Each one added to this story in their own way, including their interactions with Shantae. You meet some snake in the grass fellas and some pretty good to know fellas. Every story has a snake in the grass and this one had a few.I recommend this book as it gives a different look at life. I enjoyed and definitely want to see where Shantae goes in the future and some other characters as well.
