    Your ignorance of what a “fact check” actually is would be a far greater concern. If you don’t like the spread of misinformation, you might want to stop speaking.

    I thought I read somewhere that Jada was never really attracted to Will, that Will was attracted to her and went after her, but clearly they were not compatible, I think because their history growing up is two completely different worlds!

    I haven’t read the book yet, but I will be reading it soon. I honestly dealt with a lot of Depression and Anxiety a few years back. I was one who told myself I will be ok, but honestly I was just going down hill. I did eventually see a counselor and that truly helped a lot. Like Lorea said, if given the right tools I can do it.” That’s how I felt too.

    I give this book a 3.5!!! I was hoping the book would get better as I read more of it. That didn’t happen!!! I felt that she stayed on the subject of drug dealing and Tupac a little too long. It was just too much and draining for me!! I agree with Lorea and Isaiah about some of that stuff sounding like she was exaggerating. I didn’t really care for her book at all!!!

    I agree with Lorea! Single life is good to a certain extent. I’m 44 and I’m not trying to be out here dating around just to be dating. It’s some of us women that is at an age where we are ready for commitment and marriage. At some point All the dating has to end! Time to find that one and build something long term with them.

    I just finished the book and just Now watching this episode! Anyway, I honestly enjoyed this book. I did want them to get back together, but I also agree with Isaiah. I don’t think it’s a good move for them because of the emotional hurt between them. Josiah already was getting mad and bringing up the past and how he felt when she asked him to move back in. I feel like Every time they have a disagreement or get mad, Josiah is going to bring up the past. Also the kids don’t need to be put back in that situation again if their dad has to move out again, etc. I feel like the only thing that’s holding them together is the intimacy they share. That’s All they pretty much talked about a lot of! Ok that’s all I gotta say but it was over all good though!😁
