💋Pretty young things was a good book. It kept my attention the whole time. I listened to it on audio.
It makes you look at your circle and the people you trust. It makes you wonder what who really has your back no matter what.

It shows you have a perfect stranger can show you more love than the ones you’ve been around and held on a pedestal for years. The ones who you are comfortable with.

Here’s some tidbits and questions I picked up from book 1.

Can you trust your best friend? 💋

⭐️ and ♦️ are sippin’ on Apple Henny.
What’s your go to drink?💋

Keep your head up or get left behind. 💋

Have more faith in yourself.💋

When they get mad they try to get even. 💋

What comes around goes around. I’m ready for Pretty Young Things 2!

Ready! Set! Go! Starting part 2 now! 💋💋

Good read

A good read. I’m still trying to figure out Rich purpose with Diamond & I don’t understand why Diamond did what she did. It’s proof internal damage could really mess up who a person is. Can’t wait to read part 2

Feeling sorry for Diamond🔥

What Rich did to Diamond for trying to steal his money was just too painful! Stevie is just a cold bloodied killer. Starr needs to find herself a new love, too bad Stevie has shot Antoine.

what kind of friends are these

Diamond and Starr are supposed to be girls but wow! Starr’s girlfriend ain’t no better than no good dude, beating and cheating on her. Rich, I’m still curious why he chose Diamond and how Stevie got paid for that??

Simple predictable plot
multiple errors per page-grammatical, spelling and character mix up, incorrect word usage
no character development
not much time spent developing the story
excessive label dropping

Review:

"Pretty Young Things" by Chase Moore was a interesting urban fiction read that kept me reading to the end...always presenting something that would only leave you wanting more of this plot. "Pretty Young Things" really moved with lots of action going on and it definitely isn't predictable like I thought it would be only to find 'sexy people doing a lot of ugly things' ...stealing, killing, fighting and I am sure you can find some more as you process through this good read.


The characters from Stevie, Starr, Cartier, Diamond, Rich, Lavelle, Lolita, Antoine, Sasha,Tatiana, Barbara Baker and a few others I left out will only kept you captivated in "Pretty Young Things. Like: What was going on that Stevie push Diamond to the Gentlemen's Club to meet Rich Keys? Be ready to read of greediness that is way off the chart. How will this all come out for Starr, Diamond and Antoine, Stevie and Rich? Well, we will all have to catch part 2 of Chase Moore's next novel. I am sure it will be worth checking out. Would I recommend this read? YES!

I must be the only person that didn't really like this book seeing as how it got 4 stars. The story was pretty typical of urban books. The same old characters young girls using their bodies to get men for money. The editing wasn't to great and there were moments where they typed one character's name but it was supposed to be some one else. There was no solid back story on the characters but very quick mentions about incidents in a few of thr characters past. Then there was the expected double cross and I swear off have read one of these scenes somewhere else it was a strong feeling of Deja Vu but then again so many of these books are so much alike that it's become hard to tell them apart. The ending was a total let down. I'm all for Cliff hangers but this ending was like driving up the cliff and running out of gas so the car stalled and calmly rolled back down the hill and just stopped. I seriously doubt I follow the series

Pretty Young Things
Author : Chase Moore
Meet Stevie and Starr they have been friends since they were in high school, Stevie uses Starr's good looks to lure men into her web and Stevie robs them for everything they have, then we have Diamond she is Starr best friend who uses sex to get what she wants. but when Stevie decides to rob the biggest Drug dealers brother because he has been stealing from her, the game may change every ones life.

I loved this book, it captured me from the first page, it had so many twist that I didn't see coming, I did find a few missing words but it didn't take away from the story at all.
I would recommend this book.

I enjoyed reading Pretty Young Things which introduced 3 treacherous & dangerous females. Starr, Stevie & Diamond made their living by taking from others. Though it was dangerous , most of the time they seemed to enjoy it & were successful completing their missions. But as all good things come to an end, so does their luck. This was a well written story & I look forward to reading pt. 2 to see what other disturbing crimes they will commit.

This was an alright story. The thing that gets me is the constant talks about the clothes they were wearing and how much everything cost. It was a typical urban hood story about money, strippers and cheating. The only reason I am considering reading part 2 is because I want to know what happened to Diamond and how Rich reacts to what she has to say about her brothers death.

These young girls are a mess. They have no guidance. Diamond is the worse. Starr is a fool and stevie is mean. Will Rich make all of them pay. The struggles, the deceit and the so called love will be unraveled. Felt some pity for Anthony he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time and fell in love with the wrong person, that's just my opinion. I hope love works out for him.

Decent Read

Book was kinda all over the place. I like to read books that are possible to happen in real life even though it's fiction. This book was not it. However I'm intrigued to read part 2 just to see what is going to happen. I wanted to give it 3 & 1/2 stars but couldn't figure out how to do the half rating.

Whoaaa!! That's all I can say at that ending. I mean I knew Rich was ruthless but Damm. Diamond definitely had what was coming to her though with her robbing the man. I hope Starr gets far away. I'm interested to see what will happen next. First read from Chase Moore and I enjoyed it so far.

Wish it wasn't so short.

Pretty good book. Very intense. I wasn't expecting a lot of the situations that happened in this book. And for me that's a great thing. A lot of urban lit books are good girl meets bad guy kinda love stories and this was not it lol. I really did like it though. This is the 1st book I've read by this author, but it won't be the last.

Starr shoulda fucked Stevie up!!! Diamond fucked herself up, she had all she wanted with Rich but she couldn't give up the gold-digging life. Can't wait for Part 2 to see what Rich does when he finds out who killed his brother.

Pretty well paced novel. Diamond and Starr are best friends even though they both deal with Stevie who actually doesn't really care about either of them. Rich is a semi-legit business owner who suffers the loss of his younger brother. Only Stevie really knows everything about everyone else

This book was very good. I can't wait to read part two. This book gripped me from the very beginning. It was full of suspense in a gritty way..

It was hard to even put it down to do the important things that I needed to do on a daily basis.

Good Read

This was a good read, definitely a page turner. I like that the author kept the story on track and wasn't all over the place like some stories are. The ending was a cliffhanger, can not wait to read part 2!!
