As you probably can see, I'm a huge fan of Tiffany D. Jackson's books, but this is the first time I found myself a little bit disappointed with her work. And I think I know the reason. I put my expectation in a different direction.
This book is the 'lightest' among her other works. Before I read this book, I thought I'd get a plot twist as surprising as the one on Monday's not Coming. And I was wrong.
As always, Tiffany could hook you without as much as an effort to get you on an adventure with our three main characters; Quady, Rell, and Jazz. Although I lack connection with her characters here, her writing is always perfect for me.
You know, if I could concentrate better and put my expectation in the right direction, I'll probably like this more.
This book is perfect for you if you like historical fiction books with hip hop culture.
