Review
"Winter is nasty, spoiled, and almost unbelievably libidinous, and it's ample evidence of the author's talent that she is also deeply sympathetic."

--"The New Yorker"

Customer Reviews

What a masterpiece - keeping it real in its true form!
I picked up this book at a Hair and Beauty Show in London and had never read one of her titles before. When I finished it I went straight on the internet frantically searching for more of her fiction titles. My 3 sisters and my cousin also couldn't put the book down. It was a masterpiece. Realistic, sad, funny, "street" & oh so real. I laughed with Winter, I cried with Winter, I boosted with Winter, but most of all I wanted to hunt out Sister Souljah and beg - even pay her! to get more material out there. When you finally manage to put this book down you will find yourself oh so vexed that you've come to the end! 5 stars just doesn't even do her justice!

Fascinating Read - Impossible to Put Down!
I merely bought this book after recommendation from the site - living in the UK I had never heard of Sister Souljah but boy do I know about her talents now! I finished the book in 2 days and everything else suffered - work, friends, love life!
The book was superbly written and true to life - it was written so well it was like watching a film and seeing the lives of actors rather than reading a book!
Winter was a girl you wanted to hit, scream at, love and give a hug all at once, and reiterated the point that money really doesnt buy you happiness!
This is a recommended MUST READ, and no other book I've read yet has compared to this work of art!

Fantastic Book
This book is fantastic... Sista Souljah has Winter down to a tee she has you addicted from the start, this is one of the few books that I have read over five times and have never been bored... Waiting for the next installment
