Query: One of my favorite books

When I first read this book, I was absolutely shocked at the bluntness of the characters, and especially, the author's graphic way of depicting things. But what makes this book awesome is the fact everything is so real, to know it could happen to anyone, even you.The story is based around Janie, who grows up a harsh and rugged life around drugs, violence, and endless crimes. We she doesn't realize, however, is that she is destined for no real future at all. It tooks the whole book for her to finally realize this, and by then, it is too late to change what has already happened. But she could provide a good and content life for her daughter, Etta - the life she never had. Janie/Leshaya makes many bad choices, but eventually learns from her mistakes.I reccommed this book to anyone, though everything is very blunt, and the character basically speaks her mind. Nothing is held back, including everything from wild parties to pregnancy and drug dealing. Read openly.
