Review:

"The Life That God Gives You" by Shaquia Jimson

My Speculation:

I can genuinely say that Shaquia Jimson did an excellent job 'as she shares with a society that they should appreciate and salvage as much as they can each day of "The Life That God Give You."  As I read through this story, I was horrified with some of the things I was reading about this family, But, by the end, it all comes together, and that was the vital part of the read. I wished things had happened differently for Ms. Samantha in all she did being so 'heartless and wicked' was to get her daughter's girls separated [Shawna & Sabrina]. Indeed, "money drove Samantha in all kinds of directions that ended up being  detrimental to her family, Grace in particular."   I don't want to tell to much of the story because this is one for you to read and see how one person can ...well, like I said I will stop here and say, please pick up "The Life That God Gives You" and see what this author has to give the reader that will also involve Sex Trafficking and Domestic Violence. 

I enjoyed the Interview with Shaquia Jimson at the end of the read.  It did answer a few questions I had leftover from the read; however, one question I wished had been answered, and that was she and her sister ever close?
