“In Pushing Pause the author sends the message that the choices we make have consequences, and I believe she proved that best with Kenisha Lewis' mother, Barbra, who - if she had the chance to "do it over again" - probably would have made better choices instead of the ones that left her dependent on prescription drugs. Or even would have started making better choices if she had the chance. To my surprise, she didn't get that chance. But her daughter, Kenisha, a strong, talented girl who seems to be more mature than most of the adults in her life, did get that chance. She's overwhelmed by too much family drama, betrayal, friendships lost and unveiled secrets, but in the end there is forgiveness and relationships are restored. It's as if her life begins again, and this time her world is okay.
Personally, I would have enjoyed this novel much more if I didn't have to read the s*** & a** words so much. But - profanity aside- there have been books I started to read, but never finished. However, Pushing Pause doesn't fall into that category. My fingers kept turning those pages until the very last sentence.
