  In 11th grade, I've took African american studies for an elective. My teacher Ms. Horne assigned us a book she wrote called double down. Its about two twins name Shania and Shaniqua Robinson, who takes an adventure in a crime they committed for revenge. 
  The twins Mom was a woman who felt like she needed to have a man, also she was jealous of her daughters because they looked grown enough to steal her man. He mom was sad and depressed until she got a boyfriend, not know he was a pimp and child molester. The girls wasn't the type to let anybody step over them, they ghetto fabulous. he showed signs that he wanted to do things to the girls but the mom annoyed it because she wanted to be happy.
   Until one night shania went to the bathroom and he raped her. He wasn't going to get away with it so the twins decided to plan a murder scene and chop up his body and throw it in to the river. But the twins wasnt going to get away with it either. There grandmother sent them down south to her friends house for a while until things clear up. But they were found and was charged a grownup (first degree murder). But they grandmother mailed them out so they were good.

  1. This is all summary. I want to know what you think about what you read. Would you recommend it? Was it a convincing story? Did issues come up in the book that still make you think today?
