Excerpt
I caught her looking at me again. And for the life of me, I couldn't figure out why...
Shanelle Carter...
Miss Popularity is who she was, one of the most well known females on campus. Half of her family was alumni and there was even a dorm named after her grandfather. She was in her final year and about to get her Bachelor's Degree... an A.K.A.... Cheerleader... All sorts of volunteer work. In everyone's eyes, a model student.
She was fine as hell, with the body of a Goddess and a booty and a pair of legs that had everybody in constant state of awe. She had a face that was beyond pretty whether she had make up on or not. Skin the hue of warm honey. Beautiful lips and stunning almond shaped eyes that changed from golden brown to nearly green, depending on her mood. (Yeah, I've checked her out, but who hasn't?)
And as far as I knew, she was straight as hell.
She was dating this kind of lame dude named Travis. You know, the kind that seemed happy to spend more time in the library or coffee shop with her than take her out to dinner and a movie.
She was nice, but in an uppity kind of way. You know. She was "I'll speak to you and smile, but don't expect a long conversation" nice. I guess being born with a platinum spoon in your mouth makes you kinda uppity. She was never really stuck up towards me or anything, but she never really paid me any mind either. And why would she?
She's a high-class good girl and here I am... A big 'ol studdin' ass mofo. A sexy one, but an obviously gay mofo nonetheless.
Could you imagine the controversy and all of the slack that she would catch from her more stuck up companions just from being in my presence? Heaven forbid!
But why on Earth did she keep lookin' at me? If I didn't know any better, I would've thought that her straight ass was checkin' me out...
I was sittin' in the library listening to my mp3 and going over some notes when I felt someone watching me. Out of reflex, I looked up and saw her looking - better yet - observing me from her table that was directly in front of mine. I half-expected her to look away quickly like she had done the first couple of times that I caught her lookin'. Instead, she held my gaze for a minute before returning her attention to whatever she was working on.
I didn't know whether to be offended by the brief stare or turned on! I went back to work on my notes, but I felt it again and knew instinctively that she was looking at me again. This time I didn't look up. I sat a debated for a moment on whether or not I was going to get up and see what the deal was with her...

Longing for more
The love story She Say, She Say had me up all night! I couldn't stop reading until I finished in one sitting. The author(Wallace) brought J.B. and Nelle to life for me with her vivid writing. When I finished reading after staying up late, I was very satisfied with the story and left wanting more. I Say it is worth purchasing.
I LOVED this book!!!
This book had me laughing and damn near in tears! I couldn't get enough this book, I loved how you can see things from both sides. I found myself pulling for the two. I could read this book over and over again.
Couldn't put it down
The book had me captured at page one. I couldn't put it down. To read the ups and downs and in and outs of this releationship had me so caught. It was so real. JB and Nelle's chemistry is one to only dream about. You almost feel like you're invading in on their privacy it's so detailed. I loved it.
