Sounds like a Lie, but it's Really the Truth
BANNED in Florida, because of how it deals with critical issues of race and racism, teen-aged sex, teen pregnancy, and abortion. A funny and sad story based on real events: Wrong race, wrong age. But a love that felt so right. A story that encapsulates the issues of today: a young woman fighting for a love in a society that forbids it; a story about race relations, hate crimes, and teen pregnancy. Angel-Louise wasn't supposed to fall in love with him. Her family, her age, her religion, and her race ruled against her having anything to do with him. But she couldn't help it -- even when she knew it was wrong and against everything she'd been taught. He was too old for her. Add to that, he was the wrong race. Strict, bible-believing people, her family had always told her girls like her end up "where bad people go." And now, she had to make a choice. What was she going to do? Where was she going to go? This book is a "must read" for its honest and 'no-holds-barred' look at race relations, interracial romance, and teen sexuality through the eyes of a young woman caught in the intersection of two worlds -- the old one closed and full of racial hatred, and the new one open and loving. "Sounds like a lie" is a tragic dark romance with a funny twist. Set in the American South, this story follows the unlikely romance between an adult man and a teenage girl, covering topics such as racial bigotry, teenage pregnancy, and abortion. This powerful and thought-provoking tale is full of humor and heartache, as the couple struggles to overcome the pressures of a society that does not accept their relationship. With its unique blend of issues, "lie" is an unforgettable exploration of love in a world of hate. This Dark Romance set in the American South combines elements of comedy with a unique interracial love story. The story dives deep into the struggles of an adult-teenage love affair, racial bigotry, teenage pregnancy, and abortion. It is a riveting story that will keep readers engaged and entertained. This book will leave readers with a sense of closure and a greater understanding of the issues faced by individuals in Red State America.
