La Jill Hunt & Dwayne S. Joseph 
Around the Way Girls 
20th Anniversary Edition

There’s a saying that if you come from my part of town, you’re from around the way. Around the Way Girls is a fast-paced look at the lives of some street-smart women who might think they know it all but are about to get the lessons of their lives.



La Jill Hunt brings us “Southern Comfort, ” the tale of a Southern girl who has to learn to survive on the streets of New York after a tragedy forces her family to leave Georgia and relocate to Brooklyn.

 

Angel Hunter spices things up with “Busted and Disgusted, ” bringing us into the world of Cream, who is dealing with an unfaithful man and trying to build a better future that doesn’t include the strip club where she’s worked for years. 

 

In “Played, ” Dwayne Joseph introduces us to Angel, a smart girl with a great career who suddenly finds herself in a dangerous situation when she meets a handsome drug dealer she can’t resist.

 

Twenty years ago, Urban Books debuted the Around the Way Girls series with popular urban authors bringing tales of savvy, street-smart women. Revisit this classic with the twenty-year anniversary edition of the original
