"I dont know what I was thinking when I purchased this book. I usually read the reviews before purchasing, but this one slipped by me. I have yet to get past Chapter 2. It's just not grabbing my attention. I even flipped to the back and the story just does not grab me. The title for this book in my opinion is not fit. Most of us who have read Around the Way Girls, Project Chick, or any other urban book, are fooled by this title, thinking this book is in the same category as them. NOT! Save your money ladies!"

"please somebody tell me who wrote the editorial for his book. this was the worst book i have ever read in my life!!!!!!!!!!!! stupid story and stupid characters!!!!!!!! this writer should crawl under a rock and never come out again!!!!!!!!!!!! i want my money back!!!!!!!!!!!!"<---this is my personal favorite :-D.

The Ghetto Girls series four books all talking about young women doing what they need to do to survive in the hood. Some of them sell drugs or themselves. I read Ghetto Girls and Ghetto Girls Too and honestly I have no idea how I got through both of those books. I must have been extremely bored.

I live in one of the roughest and drug infested neighborhoods in the Bronx but I don't and would never sell drugs or my body<--hell no, to get what I need. In these books a lot of these girls have it really bad though. Their moms are on drugs and their dads are usually on drugs, in jail, selling drugs or molesting them. I know that everyone under different circumstances must make sacrifices to get by and I understood that with the first book. While reading, I actually said "ok I understand" and "aww I feel sorry for her" but come on now. It seems like now that that is all they resort to is a life of crime. Like they can have the biggest dreams in the world but "put them on the back-burner to do this for awhile until I get my shit together to do what I really want to do". If only they knew that won't happen because while they are selling drugs and putting their dreams on the back-burner they are actually seeing them slip further and further and further away. Would you want you sisters, daughters, friends, neices watching this? Not me. I want to read books about young girls who may have it hard at home but is succeeding and doing well in school on their way to college not in the street on their way to prison.

VERDICT: UHHHHH I DON'T THINK SO...FIND ANOTHER BOOK.
