Her story describes the close feel of her family and the happy times she experienced as a young girl .She also tells the readers about the community she was raised in during the 1970s. As the book continues, she describes how her life begins to change after she and her family move to Ocean Parkway, Queens, when the family is robbed in Brookside, New York. After being in the new apartment for a year or so, conditions within the family unit begin to change for the worse. A secret is revealed by SaavyGirl, which later divides her family. She tells her readers about the breakup of her family unit and how the family was never the same afterward. When the family unit falls apart, not only do things take a turn for the worse, but family members turn against her, and separation in the family begins. Over the years, the separation weighs heavily on the family, and the members struggle to piece their lives back together after being torn apart for several years. SaavyGirl gives readers a closer look into how the loss of a family unit impacted her life and later helped her to begin her road to resurrection.
