Book about twin girls born to a young mother, Livvy, all struggle to find themselves. Alize, the youngest by mere minutes, is on the wrong path and only looking to make things worse and may have done just that when she gets involved with drug dealer & murderer, Smoke. Hennesey, a bright school bound girl with everything going for her, gets involved with ex-con who is struggling to make his life right, but is being pulled back into his past and learning new things about his old best friend Smoke.
Though the writing was somewhat simplistic, and the the book took me on an emotional roller coaster I can't say it was a complete waste of time.
There were "twists" that were completely obvious, but allowed the reader to understand the characters. It's written 3rd person omniscient (my favorite!) so I knew everything about the characters before they even had an idea!
Overall... not bad. Wouldn't read it twice, and I'd only recommend it to someone bored with nothing else to read.
Word on the street: this was not even close to being his best book. "The Harris Family" was a bestseller so that's probably a good read.
