SYNOPSIS

THOUGHTS
this one was okay. 
i wasnt crazy over it 
BUT LOL THE UNIVEEEEEEEEEEEERSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

han's dad rip's and now shes off to go meet her family. and of course they are evil and in the end it all works out and thats it. 

and it wasnt bad but it was missing an umph. i think the part that lost me was when Tiwa goes all crazy at the reading....if thats not how she truly felt why the bust? it makes sense but meh. 

idk. 

though i will say that i liked the reasoning behind homegirl automatically thinking homie was a bad dude. when all you've known is to expect the worst..., well why would that suddenly change? i do believe that part was beautifully executed. 
sometimes its so obvious. but reading this - er - having this read to me shed a different type of light on it for me. 

anyway. hmm....i wish it could have been spicier in the sense that i wanted more drama (lol les! really!?) yes! remember the mom from her first book! lol 

onto her 3rd book! (i have heard it since posting this and !!!) 


SPOILERS
shit. 
i did not do them right away so let me seeeeeeee......

the night before anything happens, hannah goes out with her friend to an event, ends up alone and meets LOHL (love of her life bc i 4got his name). they both get important calls and they do not exchange any information. 

hannah's dad uh passes away and in his will its his wish that H travel to his home to meet the rest of his children. she goes and meets them. theyre against it. it turns out that the love of her life is homies with Tiwa and um...so the family gets along with Hannah and at first its fake but they all grow on each other and then the will is read and it turns out that Hannah gets to keep the home in Nigeria causing Tiwa to be all wtf and then H learns that they were all getting along with her because if they didn't they would not inherit anything in the will. 
of course she thinks that lohl  is in on it also! (because he is a huge part of the family) but in the end it all works out and everyone is happy. 

also, tiwa is with her dad's homie. who is several years older than her. its on the DL, of course Hannah catches them and never says anything and then yeah, that's it.
