A Deeper Love Inside

Porshe L. Santiaga is a rich spoiled girl who’s life is turned upside down when her house is raided by the police. Being the daughter of infamous drug lord, Ricky Santiaga, had been smooth sailing until now. A Deeper Love Inside by Sister Souljah take’s us on the Whirlwind journey of 10 year old Porshe navigating in a cold world.

As the sequel to the The Coldest Winter Ever, I had high expectation’s for “A Deeper Love Inside”, they were met no doubt!, but DEFINITELY not how I imagined. Porsche leads a different life from her sister even though trying to be exactly like her, she will forever remain different. I actual grew to love this book becuase of its differences. How can we write two stories about two different people and expect it to be the same?. The Quick witted, money-hustler Porshe is as loyal as they come. Determined to remain a true Santiaga, re-connect their family and everything they lost is her only goal. A goal made in Hope’s of recieving the same amount of love she feels for her family.

This is a true love story, a truthful side of family ties broken and love misunderstood. A lost soul looking for love in all the places we think we can get it, our families. But the reality is, alot of people don’t have that luxury. I love this book and Sister Souljah for “exposing” a very really side for some.

Dont care to much, Porsche. Every person you meet will use it against you.

The only thing that i had a problem with in this book is the lack of meaningful lessons from Sister Souljah. Usually throughout her books she has many underlying relatable messages not only directed for the inner city youth but everyone, I just didnt get as much of it as I wanted. The will to survive and keep fighting stuck out to me the most but towards the end it just fizzled out. With out ruining the book I will add that Porsche had some deep psychological issues left unanswered and some-what ignored. Does she fully heal? In the ending of The Coldest Winter Ever I thought I seen dramatic change in Winter Santiaga, not wanting her sister to have the same mindset as her and end up in the same situation. Yet as we enter near the ending of A Deeper love Inside she speaks as if she has learned nothing stuck in the same time period as when she went prison. While everyone one on the outside was moving forward she was frozen in time.

I love Sister Souljah, this another amazing novel by an amazing female writer. Much respect.
