"...unless y'all got married you ain't his wife, you're his wifey. A lot of chicks throw that word around but it won't give you a leg to stand on in court. It's because we stay wifeys instead of becoming the wife why we always getting shitted on and left with nothing when It's all said and done." [Tionna]- K'wan 'Welfare Wifeys'

The wives are the only ones who matter, but even they go through the heartache. It's all a part of the game."

My rating: 5 stars

I loved this book. I was browsing my library’s collection and I found this and decided to give it a chance. I’m so glad I did because once I started reading, I did not want to stop. The book is about Ball, who after some unfortunate mishaps (I don’t want to spoil it) ends...

Drama High - # 15 Street soldiers 

At South Bay High, the drama just keeps on growing… In the long-awaited 15th volume of the Drama High series, Street Soldiers picks up with a murder in front of Jayd’s grandparents' house. Mama and Daddy are convinced the police have the wrong suspect in custody and have joined forces to help organize the neighborhood and find the real killer. Mickey's ex-boyfriend has been arrested for the gruesome act, which is more like their wicked next-door neighbor, Esmeralda, and her shape-shifting boyfriend, Rousseau's handiwork. And to make matters worse, Esmeralda's influence in the community is growing stronger every day, and so are the powers of her top apprentices and Jayd's best frenemies, Misty and Emilio.  With two of Jayd's closest friends, Mickey and Nigel at war over the custody of Mickey's daughter, Jayd's ex-boyfriend, Rah going back to his ex-girlfriend, Trish without Jayd's knowledge, and having to witness her most recent love, Jeremy pretend to date her newest enemy, Cameron, Jayd's had just about all the drama she can take and it's only the beginning of their senior year. Keenan, her new college coffee buddy, is the only one who can take her mind off of her chaotic life. Jayd decides that it's time to make some changes and get rid of anyone-and anything-holding her back.
