Author Tiece's Mickens novel Scarlett was "Awesome."  This was the very first book that I read from her and it was "Sizzling."  The book starts out talking about the main character Scarlett and how dysfunctional her family is.  It's at this moment that I start rooting for Scarlett to see that beauty is more then just skin deep.  It seems as if Scarlett has the potential but she lacks the confidence to pull it off.  It's now until we meet Scarlett's Mother Gwen that I begin to see why she acts and carries herself the way she does.  Gwen is a TERRIBLE MOTHER and should have never been allowed to have kids.  Gwen's chracter does some very hurtful, mean, and trifling things to Scarlett.  For instance Gewn puts her funky fingers that were placed in her cooch and rubs them unto Scarlett face.  Who does that?  Not to mention the many nasty comments that she makes throughout the book.  Next we meet Ant her little brother who in my opinion is Heaven sent.  He may not attend school but he's not a dummy by a long shot.  I'm saving the best for last Scarlett's best friend Shelia with friend like her who need enemies.  She is just down right low down and dirty.  Shelia was cool having a friend who was beneath her until Scarlett's spread her wings and a new Angel appears.  This is when the book gets really juicy.  All in all I was very pleased with the read and would recommend it to all my peers!
