" It took me just a few hours to whip through "Precious". It was short but not sweet. It was rather heartbreaking reading about Precious Jones life. Raped, pregnant at 12 and 16, severely abused by her father and lost in a the world of Harlem, she overcame a lot through out the book. It's a tough one at times, very disturbing, but Precious made me care about her and I wanted to see how things turned out for her. "
