Wow. This story was so powerful I cried 5x. I am speechless. Thank you for writing this.
What would you do if you could see the future just by touching something? Where you will be in 5 years, where your car will end up, who will be around and there for you...Alex Rufus had never been able to live a normal life ever since he was 12. Alex can see the future of whatever person or object he touches. Who will use the ice cream scoop next and that him and his girlfriend will end up breaking up. But when Alex touches a family photo and sees a vision of his younger brother, Isaiah’s imminent death, everything changes...Alex now has to race against time and death for his brother. Alex can’t tell Isaiah and it is pure torture. Alex and Isaiah have to deal with their dark past, their future, and deal with being a young Black man in present day America.
What would you do?
This book was perfect in every way. It was everything I needed to be reading. It took me on an emotional rollercoaster that I didn’t know I needed. The book will be published March 16th 2021z Please do yourself a favor and get a copy, you won’t regret it.

I loved this so much. Yes I cried the last 6 chapters but damn! Having 2 Black teenage sons it just broke me all the way down. I absolutely loved Slay and Cost of Knowing…now I can say Miss Brittany is definitely and automatic buy for me

As I always say I am not own voices on these subjects so please go and check out those reviews.
This was a hard book to read and review. There are a lot of hard subjects being covered in this book but it is definitely worth it if you can handle it. This is so moving and emotional so this is also not a book you "enjoy" but a book that teaches you. It moved me in so many ways. I actually broke down and cried several times while reading this book.
This is definitely a rough and hard book but worth it. This was also a really unique take a story we all need to hear and learn. I am definitely going to recommend this book at work as much as possible.
