The Books That Shaped My Pen

True to the Game was the first book that made me want to write. I didn’t just read it. I related to it. The world it painted was one I understood. The street codes, the hustle, the emotional risks, and everything in between. That story showed me urban fiction could be bold, real, and hit deeper than people expect.
