Why So Fast???!
This read was not good at all. So many stereotypes were depicted in this one from the multiple baby “daddies”, the single mom not taking care of the multiple kids, and jailbird comes home to millions of dollars.
At points if felt like the author had forgotten what was written about the scene or characters. The plot was all over the place and I didn’t root for anyone to win in this one. Well maybe Tracy she seemed like a hard worker. But them main characters were trash.
Speaking of garbage the narrator. Was she hyped up on speed cause she was flying through this “performance.” I had to adjust the speed from 1.0x to 0.7x to have her reading at a decent pace. She was very monotone not giving much of a performance at all. 1 star for both the story and the performance.
