When you rape a child, you kill the person they could have been…..
Momma could have been a good mother. Maybe, if she hadn’t been raped as a child, she wouldn’t be addicted to drugs. Maybe, if she wasn’t a crackhead, she would have paid more attention to her children. Maybe my sister, Lola, wouldn’t have become a mother at 15 years old. Maybe I wouldn’t have been raped or tried to commit suicide at 9 years old.
Terror Town isn’t what you think it is.....
Terror Town is a neighborhood in Chicago that many people avoid. For Amina Burns, Terror Town is a state of mind that she longs to escape; not the neighborhood that shows her love.
Torn and uncertain about life, 17-year-old Amina Burns doesn’t know what her next step in life will be. She only knows that she can’t shake her thoughts of her terrible past. As a senior in high school, she should be looking forward to college but her dysfunctional family and her drug dealing boyfriend want her in Chicago while her best friend, Peggy, is trying to pull her away.
Terror Town: Childhood Interrupted is the first novel in a series that explores the life of young Amina Burns’ current life and her past in parallel as she muddles through setbacks, disappointments and family drama. How will she move forward?
