It was a VERY interesting part two type of novel. First off, we LOVE Sister Soulja and her work. BUT... We wanted SO much love this but unfortunately it fell short of a few things:
1. Most of us listened to the Audible, we love Nia Long but her voice as Winter was a "NO GO". No real inflection or something that brings the character to life.
2. The overall plot was simply weird. Very uninteresting, preachy and disconnecting. We found it hard to follow the trashy sex scenes with mentions of abortion, Islamic religion and other off topic issues.
3. The ENTIRE book summary is located in the last few sentences of the chapter. Meaning the other 20+ chapters are simply a waste of time and energy.

This definitely kept me aghast! What an interesting imagination Sister Souljah has. I initially was concerned if I’d be able to finish this one because of the negative reviews and comments but I’m happy I did. This tied up a few loose ends and kept me tailing for what was next.
I came across some wild reviews before I began reading this book and the shapeshifting sex is just as vulgar as you fae, warlock, creature genre fans out there so why are yall tripping on Souljah for it? After getting passed that part I think the book really blew me away about how she hooked the readers into how Winter became more self aware which is all I wanted since the beginning. As smart as Winter is the hood, oblivious, materialistic and prideful demeanor made me truly hate her character! Souljah really turned this around I love how this story ended. I want to see what happens to Ricky even though he was released from prison. Will Winter meet someone and live a different life? Did Simone, Natalie and the other girls have another part where they try to takedown Winter again? I have so many questions. Any ways onto Love after Midnight!!!
The name of the book is perfect. It is different. I like the book, I did have some “what in the world” moments because I did not expect to read what I had read. I do recommend this book if you like weird.
