review 1: Friendship, high school romance, teen pregnancy, gangs, and dreams. Patrice and Demario, 17, are expecting their first child. Luckily, these two teens seem to have family around to help them. Denim is upset with her buddy Patrice for getting pregnant. All their life their goal was to attend college together. Denim is also missing her boyfriend Dre who just disappered one night without saying goodbye or one peep! To help keep Denim occupied she gets a job with physical therapy where she helps and gets to know the lead gang member, but she doesn't know that! The drama is just starting! Great read only wish I had part 3 at home!
review 2: This book reminded me of myself and everyday problems with my boyfriend and I. We go through our problems and somehow we
... moreend up making up at the end of the day. The book was a run on from 16 Going On 21(Denim Diaries #1). The main characters in the book are Denim,Dre,Patrice and Demario. At that point Dre's gone no one knows where he's went and why. Denim is hurt and worried because it's not like Dre to not be in contact with her. Dre's father gets him and his family tied up in his problems. Patrice ends up pregnant by her boyfriend Demario. Denim and Patrice stop talking because Denim was hurt and mad at Patrice for getting pregnant knowing they had plans on going to college together. To get Dre off Denim off her mind she starts working at a rehab center for patience that are trying to walk again. She meets a young man named Carlton and starts catching feelings. Before you know it they were sitting on the bench waiting for his mother to pick him up and begin kissing. Dre pops up out of nowhere and ask why Denim why she was kissing him. Meanwhile all this is going on the next few days later Denim hears about Carl getting killed. Not knowing who she was dealing with, he was involved with a gang. She's labeled as Lil Carl's girl, his gang buddies decided to look after Denim and make it be known she's not to be messed with or else. Denim gets to school and hears the non sense, that's where the trouble begin. Meanwhile Denim runs into Patrice at the mall feeling akward Patrice basiclly begs Denim to be friends again when Denim just brushes her off with the cold shoulder. After Patrice falls into a coma and almost looses the baby, when she wakes up she forgets all about the argument with Denim, she thinks they've been cool since day one and bestfriends forever. Denim was happy that she didn't remember because she knew she was being cold towards Patrice at the hardest time. Dre's finished up with non sense his father brung him and his family into, they can move back in town. Denim over hears a conversation about a fellow student that has once helped her at a point in time, and decides to go to the girls "hood". What happens from here? Read queen of the Yards(Denim's Diaries #3)The following line has stood out to me "It only takes sixty seconds" Patrice once told Denim that and look she's the one that ends up pregnant. How do you give advice if you don't take it yourself. At the end of the story Denim told Patrice it only take sixty seconds. I want to know why Patrice would give Denim adivce and not take it herself. She should've been setting an example for Denim instead of getting pregnant. less
