I thought this was a decent read with a solid plot....but the grammatical errors were overkill! Not only that, the characters had many different names.. For example.....one minute the sister is Brittany then on the next page she is Bridgette, there was no excuse for major errors like this and made me wonder was this book even edited. Not only that but the timing of the story/events were way off....especially the part when it flashed back to the main character watching ANT Farm at nine yet in the present day she is in her mid twenties. It just didn't add up and I believe another reviewer pointed this out as well. If that's the case...then the setting of this story actually takes place further into the future.The character development was pretty good but it was hard to connect with Beauty and Jaquan's relationship. For some reason I couldn't take them seriously at all. I didn't know what to expect from the ending but I wasn't shocked or surprised. I did wonder what Chano wanted from Beauty's house that he sent Brittany to get. What was it that she was supposed to take care of? Nothing more on that was elaborated on, I guess the author just used that to set up the next scene and turn of events.This was a quick read and I feel as though the author has potential but need to invest in an editor because it's hard trying to push through a story with so many errors yet you keep going because you know underneath it all there is something worth reading.
