A Deeper Love Inside The Porsche Santiaga Story edition by Sister Souljah Literature Fiction eBooks

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I read "The Coldest Winter Ever" many moons ago, but I re-read it before reading this book to refresh my mind, but mainly just to see if there was continuity. And of course Sister Souljah did not disappoint. When I read Coldest Winter, it's obviously Winter's story so her little sister Porsche is an after thought for the reader. You get so wrapped up in Winter's story that you forget to think about what happened with Porsche. Sister Souljah has written a story that ties in perfect with the Coldest Winter, but also stands on its own. The juxtaposition of the two sisters is great. It's funny how the two Santiaga sisters reacted differently to fall of their father's empire. While winter fought to prove she was the "Baddest Bitch" and was all about her self, Porsche was fighting to recreate her family. Both girls inherited their father's ability to "hustle" but it manifests in different ways. I liked this story. I have one major issue. I felt like Porsche never dealt with the issue of "Siri" and Elisha never addressed it either.

Overall, this was well written and developed. While following Porsche, I was also introduced issues in the juvenile justice system. I also wished there was some explanation as to why Ricky Santiaga never personally reached out to his middle daughter. I stopped reading for a second to think about what makes/defines a family. In the book we meet different kinds of family (Gucci Girls, Diamond Needles, The Brooklyn Business Owners, The Immanuels, etc.). The issue of mental health is put on display. As always, Souljah didn't just write a story, she wrote a story that makes you think. Her themes are well explored and developed. I can't wait for her next one.

A Deeper Love Inside The Porsche Santiaga Story edition by Sister Souljah Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

This is probably my favorite books this year. It was great to see Porsche fight through circumstances and beat the odds. I'm definitely looking forward to the next book (hopefully). It would be good to see the next chapters of Porsche life beyond her childhood years with the hubby and Winter once she is release.
I read The Coldest Winter Ever back in my college days and was floored by Sista Soulja's way of developing such realistic streams of consciousness within her characters. Her writing is so raw and tangible. I didn't know what to expect from this book because Porsche was an afterthought in The Coldest Winter ever. I was enthralled the entire time! I read this book in less than a week and I'm a busy mother and wife. Sista Soulja deserves all types of literary awards, she's a brilliant storyteller!
I think that the book was just okay, but not because it was not an extension of Winter's story from TCWE. I think an important message that the book demonstrated was that Porshe was different than Winter. Porshe had not been indoctrinated by the drug dealing environment as Winter had. Porshe's family was taken away from her and he had very few choices. Winter made the decision to ostracize herself from her family when the going got rough. Porsche felt that she had something to prove to her mother through her trying to rehabilitate mom. Had Winter been a better person, her mother would not have needed rehabilitating. Porshe's dream was to reconcile with her family. Winter wanted a rich baller or participation in a lifestyle rooted in illegal activity to save her. I was not looking forward to another cautionary tale about the dangers of the drug game. I was hoping that, in spite of who her parents were, that Porshe would be able to set herself apart once she understood the dangers of the life her family lead. Once she saw her mom for the first time, smelly and dirty and literally looking for her next score, I think she understood. Those who wanted more Winter may not believe that there is any redemption from growing up the child of a dug kingpin. I find that disturbing.

What I did not like about the story is it was unrealistic and presupposed that an average 10-18 year old had the resources and the fortitude to help a mom that was beyond help, to become a hustler (in a good way) and to travel extensively as she did. This was the part of the story that annoyed me.
I chose this rating because of all the action and entertainment from the couples, friends and families. I'm just glad that P. got her happy story ending. I'm glad she overcame her five holes in her heart as she stated, with a love so real and supreme. Her family left her behind without giving her a second thought. Then she found eleven diamonds as her sisters and they she found the LOVE of her life and his family excepting her to replace the one she lost. Maybe it was best that she went unnoticed by her family. I understand why her father didn't write her and the twins, because he thought that Midnight had THEM. At least he explained that he spent six/eight years searching for her. Happy life.
This book was so powerful and awesome. I was turning page after page,day and night. I've loved the whole point of this book it opens your heart,Mind and soul. Even the experiences of each character moved me. God is Love and love is not always given and receive the way God planned it. People take it out of context and strip it. But I love the way the pieces of Porsche Santiaga life played out. I have laughed, cried,screamed,got upset and overcame in reading this book. I can relate as I'm sure many other can also. I really appreciate you Sista Souljah for the mind God gave you to write such life altering books. Looking forward to whatever you have coming up hopefully soon for our best books collections.
Jesus Christ Loves U All & So Do I!
Be Blessed & Encouraged.
