I read this book in fifth grade, passed it to my friends and got it confiscated lol. Ok, this book deals with candy, an aspiring musician who finds love in all the wrong places and it can become potentially fatal if you let it. She lost her virginity around the age of 15 and she is described as having lovely red hair, caramel skin, and blue eyes. She and her mother had the talent of singing, but it went to waste because they were living in slums, sleeping on a pissy mattress, etc. her mom and he

This book was full of action and left you wanting more. There was not a boring part in this book. I could picture every little detail in this book because Noire used a great deal of imagery. This story is about a girl who goes by the name of Candy and like many young women her age, she wants to become a singer. She also meets a guy who she believes is the man of her dreams but she then realizes that he is the exact opposite. There were many themes expressed throughtout the book such as jealousy, love, empowerment, ambition and more. Towards the ending of the book was a bit extreme but each character received their own form of karma which was either good or bad. I recommend this book for anbody who enjoys reading realistic fiction.
