I Have My Struggles & Fights Vaneisha Tyree

My name is Alicia Matthews, but who am I? My name doesn't define who I am, it doesn't make up my characteristics. I'm not your ordinary teenager. I'm actually going through things finding me. Who Alicia is. I don't want to be like my sister Kayla, I don't want to be on drugs like my mom. My "dad" hates me, he abuses me verbally and physically. Why don't I have family that want me? Why cant I find someone to care for me? Are you like me? Don't know who you are? I'm Alicia, Who are you? I have a boyfriend James that loves me so much. He has a quick temper but so what, who doesn't? Kevin who I knew since middle school likes me too, he know I have a boyfriend but he doesn't care. Did I mention that I live with my grandpa? He's also verbally abusive at times. Hmm, I think i left out a lot more information about this book. Oh yea, you guys have to read the book!!
