Summary: WHATEVER--
Comment: Shannon Holmes is indeed a talented writer, but come on...isn't this "caught in the game" scenario getting a little redundant. I predicted almost every situation in this novel, it was ridculous, its the same ol' story: young girl leaves home because of abuse, abandonment and lack of love, gets "caught in the game"-meaning becomes a stripper, encounters various problems, and then learns her lesson.
I guess I can say I had many problems with the book, one being it's consistency. Holmes wasn't consistent when it came to Goldie's character--its seemed like her substance abuse problem wasn't really put into effect until after she hit New York, all the while Holmes made it seem like she was doing this all the time. Then he was depicting her as a woman trying to change her life around,but had her using drugs and reading the Bible. I didn't like that combination--PERSONALLY! It just seemed like, even as the book was about Tender, it concentrated more on Kat, I felt like I didn't KNOW Goldie enough--Holmes should have introduced, depicted and involved his characters equally so that his readers could understand them better.
Then, the ending of the story left me hanging. It seemed like at the end Holmes was trying to hurry up and end the novel, instead of keep the reader grasped. I felt like Quentin and Tender should have been together at the end, and I felt like Quentin should have been more part of her life.
I think it takes a lot to write a novel, and Holmes did an okay job, there were just some things missing.
