For Unique, life is good until her dope-dealing boyfriend, Took, is arrested and winds up in jail. Now she's broke as a joke, trying to put every petty hustle into play to chase hard times away from the door. With an empty refrigerator, a stack of bills piling up, a tenth-grade education, a big butt and a smile, it doesn't take long for her to learn to pull the wool over the eyes of any fool who's blinded by her good looks.

Honey Jones Ruined It for me!!! HORRIBLE NARRATOR!
every time this chick reads the book she loses me. excuse any typos because this will be talk to text. she can't pronounce the words correctly. she pauses when she shouldn't. she sounds like she's eating while she's talking. she has no emotions. my third grader could read this book better and with some feeling. this little girl needs to go sit down and never read even if she's doing it for free. I couldn't enjoy the story. by the story is a short stories. they're at the level I expect from the Publishing Company who presents them. if you're looking for a list writing it's not here. if you're looking for Stella performances, this is not the book for you. if you just have time to kill and you can get over the narrator, you might enjoy the book. for me, if I had to pay for this book I would be asking for my money back. don't waste the credit.

Every story 3 stars
Every story three stars. Story 1: Wholesome as a stripper can be, Cream’s backstory is heavy: an AIDS-dead mom, underage stripping to evade foster homes, losing her virginity to a ruthless 80s-flashy gangster, getting pregnant by her longtime boyfriend she loves but isn’t in love with. This does go on for too long though, could be sprinkled in and with more dialogue than a mini textbook infodrop. Ironically named Wise, the father of the kid she’s unsure about keeping, has been fishy about stopping coke-slinging and sly around her homegirls and bad at pleasing her in bed, which is funny.
It’s too obvious who he’s hooking up w/ from the get-go, I’d rather it be a surprise. As a 5%er, Wise views himself as a god and wouldn’t want his girl to abort his child. They don’t communicate any of this for quite a while though. The humor is good from time to time but the writing is pretty basic, plot driven but not that original. I’d like more about the ODing coke friend, her man’s religion, the strip club setting and finer things they used to do w/ their ill-gotten gains. Ch. 6 finally gets more unique w/ the mistress working w/ Cream to drug and blackmail a braggart patron. Ugh, the end had no build up or emotional connection or much action as it should’ve w/ the non-MC.
Story 2: Southern Comfort Hunt By LaJill. From ATL to NY, shy Puerto Rican-looking Sydney isn’t home anywhere. Corner guys always pressing up on her, her basketballer brother Aaron tries to protect her but gets lost in his local fame. He dies young, which she blames on his BFF he was hanging out w/ when he got caught in crossfire. It’s so stupid when her creepy boss rubs his erection against her everyone says she should just let him marry her mom.
The white boy sounds cute and thoughtful but is too much of a simp. Who gives a girl their dad’s $10k and a ring to their also 18y/o crush and expects them to come marry them when they’ve never been romantic and may not see each other for yrs? Accepting it or not, she should have left before her sister tries to or take her with her—what did they think would happen w/ the perv in their house? When someone gets kidnapped, I’m actually surprised who it is. I’m glad we enlist the sweet Jamaican lady to help. I do think there are a few too many characters introduced too soon and without identifiers. Good several twists. Maybe the ending is gushingly happy/time jumpy to feel realistic enough, but could be mended with a half ch.
Story 3: At first, I like the MC’s bluntness and her badass crush’s name (Fredo) but dancing and bitching over nothing is boring. The lesbian pivot is a nice flavor but I don’t get the shame over it when she’s so independent and perfectly fine being promiscuous w/ guys. It’s not like anyone saw and her circle is supportive/indifferent. Thinking you should go to the hospital or that a guy has something to do with it is a bit outlandish. Yet she still tries to hit on the guy. Their cat-and-mouse dates w/ his suave disappearing acts provide great romantic tension and I like that they’re both unconventional businesspeople, her a law clerk. When their worlds merge, they could be unstoppable so I’m game to see, even though she’s usually annoying and misnomerly called Angel. Ch 7 starts the next-level stupidity. The dude does nothing but look good and disrespect her like he’s got a screw loose, yet she accepts him over a necklace. Why is her job never brought up in how dangerous it could be to him? What did she think would happen on lame date three when he hands her a gun? It is hot how when they ménage a trios they videotape it and hookup again while all watching it. It’s a cool tension point how he presses her though; she always mouths back but quickly backs down despite barely knowing him over shallow reasons. Immediately willing to drop her real friends. It’s been what, a week or two? Jeez. Every end of these stories is the same.
