Dope Boy

by Sa'id Salaam

Cameron Forrest had the mind of a mathematician, the heart of a lion and the soul of a hustler. If he had been raised across town in one of Atlanta’s affluent areas, he would probably have been a doctor or lawyer…maybe even president.
Instead, he grew up in one of Atlanta’s most depressed ghettos. Cam was a natural born leader, so it was no surprise that he rose to the top of the drug trade. He ran the notorious B.C.B.’s with an iron fist. As a result he was a millionaire by age 21.
Join young Cam as he robs, steals and kills on his rise to the top. He grinds his way up the ladder…killing anyone who gets in his way.
Part I of the Dope Boy series is sure to leave you wanting more.

this was my first time reading from this author with this short story, and i will say i enjoyed it!
It was a good read and it flowed. i felt bad for Cameron hes mother didnt care and took him out of an enviornment where he could have succeed in a different way to bring him into her world where she barley paid him any mind and he had to grow up too fast to take care of himself. This story takes us through baby Cam to teenage Cam and the things he had to do to survive. Life for him sure was not easy but he found a way to overcome it!

Cam had to learn at a early age how to take care of himself. With a drug addicted mom he had to hustle at 5 learning the skills as he got older moving to bigger and better money. But with more money comes more problems.
with his crew bringing in dough after dough the enemies comes knocking.

Nice read fast paste, but the author gets to the point with action after action.

Off to read part 2 :)

The book, Dope Boy by Sa'id Salaam, is the introduction of a three part story, focused on main character Cameron, the only child of a 14 year old drug addicted mother. Cameron has seen and experienced way to much in his young life. He quicky develops a hustle; in order, to eat and survive. This story is heart wrenching , well developed, well written and an excellent read!! Kudos for Author Sa'id Salaam! Five stars all the way!!!!
