I read this book a few years ago and recently read it again and was reminded how great this book is. Its written by Sista Soulja, and speaks on life in Brooklyn NY for the daughter of a wealthy drug dealer. I think what I love about this book most is Soulja's ability to describe street life without over hyping or adding all the Hollywood glam that usually accompanies stories like hers.
Now don't get it twisted, the story has plenty of drama, sex, lust, violence, and unpredictable twist and turns. As you read, you will follow the main character, Winter, and all the dangers and drama that accompanies being the daughter of a hustler. Life takes a drastic turn for Winter after her father, Santiaga, gets locked up and everything she has is taken away from her. After growing used to the pampered life that her father's money offered, Winter is in for a rude awakening when she has to learn to survive and maintain her lifestyle in the cold mean streets of New York City.
She'll use her body, sex, her street smarts, and anything else to get the things she wants, material and other wise. This books will have you turning pages until you reach the unpredictable but deserving end.
