Neon Teens and Funky Beats Volume 1

Before I give the description, I need to give you the reality. This is a story about how I survived a dangerous stalker as a biracial teenage girl in the 1980s. I fictionalized by changing names and timelines.

In Neon Teens and Funky Beats, readers will relive the experience of the iconic sounds and adventures of the 80s, where 13-year-old girls ruled the neighborhoods and their lives vibrated to the beat of freestyle music. This story is told through the lens of a Gen X woman from NJ going down memory lane of the nostalgic life of the 80s. The story begins with the background of her and her sister and traveling to the south with their father during spring break. It involves their other teen friends and the adventures they would go on without the company of their parents.
It was the era of jelly bracelets, lip gloss, candy necklaces, and splendid music. Sani and her sister Tammy and friends were a tight-knit crew of fearless teen girls who saw MTV for the first time. They had the days of Michael Jackson's Thriller and a treasure trove of roller-skating, whispering secrets, slumber parties, and sneaking out at night. On one fateful night of tip toeing out of the house with the thrill of rebelling, this supposedly harmless dare quickly turns into a narrow escape from danger. This moment shattered their innocence and taught Sani how fragile life can be and how precious their young freedom truly was.
