Reviews:
This is an absolutely adorable tale of an African-American teen brat-pack, their trials, dreams, disappointments, self-realizations and successes. Beginning with their middle school friendship, Smith manages to give each character a distinct personality and unquestionable maturity level, while still retaining the naivety needed to make for believable characters. The meticulously placed humor will make you laugh aloud and the dramatic reality of its lowest moments will bring you to tears. This behind the scenes peek into the private lives of teens in the rural south is both refreshing and eye opening. - Caesar Brunswick -
