this book was good
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I read this book about a while back but the only thing about this authour is that her books start off slow, but once you get into it, it's non stop action AND DRAMA this book was so good, the only thing though is that the ending left me hanging, I felt I needed to know more. But this is a good read.
This boook was written for me and my man!!!

The book was really just a retake of my life. It was like everything I was facing in life was going on in this book. I enjoy singing and my boyfrind enjoys rapping. We both want to make it big just as well as Jazz and X-Man wanted to. I think anyone who enjoys reading love stories will enjoy this book, it's a great book and I promise you will enjoy. I know you will love it. I have to give Shaneska a pat on the back because she hit the nail on the head and knew exactly what she was writing when she wrote this book. You go Shaneska and I encourage all of you to pick up a copy of this book. one luv carmel

I consider myself a big fan of Sheneska Jackson's work (I've read Blessings and Lil Mama's Rules), but I must say that Caught Up in the Rapture, "caught me" the most. I love realistic love stories about African-American people and Ms. Jackson explored this relationship many ways. She made it so realistic that I was able to put myself in Jazz's place... I cried when she cried and laughed when she laughed. Ms. Jackson portrayed what true love can give you, but she also showed you how things can go wrong as in any other relationship. I truly respect Ms. Jackson as a writer and can not WAIT until her next novel.
This book was the Bomb Babe!

I just wanted to take a minute to show Sheneska some love for this book. I liked this book so much that I've read the last couple of chapters a couple of times. She got down; she put her fingers into this book. See you didn't have to be a part of the Music Industry to feel where she was coming from. I'm in the Accounting Industry and I felt her just the same, cause the game don't change. X's character could define a lot of the brothers in the "Ghetto", meaning, I don't think that the street life was really what he wanted he just needed to find another way. Contrary to popular opinion in "the hood" rap is not the only way out (I just had to through that in there). Any way I feel in love with X's character, he grew so much throughout the book and he had such a great respect for Jaz, she could do no wrong. Black love is so beautiful.
