After reading the reviews about this book and knowing it was based in my town,  I was excited to read it.  The plot was interesting and it was well edited but that's about where my compliments stop.  I realize this is the author's first book but I feel the writing lacked maturity.  With the exception of the "erotica ", I would have mistaken this book tor bring written by a teenager.  It used basic vocaulary and old street phases at an attempt to be "hood ".  The writing was disjointed and there were times where I wanted to know the point of a particular conversation or story line because it came out of nowhere and didn't make sense.  The character descriptions were shallow and made it difficult to connect with them.  I struggled through reading this book and don't care enough about whet happens to read the sequel.If the author takes her time and puts more effort into character and plot development I think she could to well.
