"Wild Cherry" by K'wan

My Thoughts....


Wow, what a dysfunctional couple, with friends and a brother...all making this one heck of a good short read. What will happen when two childhood friends get tired of their abusive men? The author really keep the readers attention and keep you turning the pages with all of the twist and unexpected turns that this novel gives the reader. The novel had a interesting storyline and then that ending was off the chain ...good and unexpected shocking ending. I loved that this author was able to give the reader a good read all in one read. Thank you, thank you...thank you!

A Good Read

A Good Read

The reason that I rated the way that I did was because, for a short story (I finished in one day), it had everything a good book should, down to the surprise ending. Yes, it starts off as the typical urban fiction, and don't get it twisted, I LOVE urban fiction, but this book has it all in ONE book! There's no sequel to wait for..... it begins and ends all in one book! FANTASTIC! BUY IT!

K'wan never disappoints. Too bad it was a short story. It was packed with action, however.

Nice quick read

Enjoyed another book by this author. Each book has the most interesting characters and settings. I really enjoyed reading this book.

Beaten

The author loses the opportunity to show two caged birds sing with unnatural twists of betrayals. The ending made regret the read.
