NOTHING LIKE BRICK CITY PROJECTS
This was a great series. All the authors in each story did a great job portraying what Brick City Projects was all about. Although it wasn't the best place to live, the characters would forever call Brick City home even after they found success. Yes, there may have been drama, but in Brick City, you had everything you could possibly need without stepping foot outside the gate. What I truly loved was their loyalty and sense of family amongst them. Really enjoyed this series.

I like it but…
Where does this drug addicted mom concept come from? It was pretty much in every story from book 1 to book 5 and that’s not even common in the black community. Pretty much the women either had drug addicted moms or moms who hated them. While most urban fiction have men with loving moms. Like what? Where does that concept stem from. I grew up in urban areas and that was not common at all. If anything, it was absent fathers. But that’s it. Left a sour taste in my mouth after a while because the books can still be good without it. It’s not like it’s a key factor throughout the story. Because the book usually goes on to portray an adult on her own. Okay. You don’t need that concept to portray that. It’s okay to have a struggling adult with supportive parents. We see it every day. But that’s drug addicted mom who left hers kids. Dead that. Every story had not. Now as soon as I see it in a book, imma DNF! Then the story with the struggling stripper. How she used to work at Mc Donald’s and left but still living like she work at Mc Donald’s. She was a bum. No car and no place of her own but struggling financially. Soooo she could’ve stayed at McDonalds. She taking off her clothes to live like that. Seriously? Go back to McDonalds for that.

Brick City Projects: Volume 5
Jamesha and Dizzy!! He was right he gonna have her ghetto and bougie!! Love them!! What Mr. Biggs told Quay…”The life you choose to live, comes with rewards or consequences. You either enjoy the fuck out of life, or you live life wishing you did.” Quay and Pretty were so cute, hopefully we get an update on all these couples!! Panda and Brisco lord he was all she needed!! Her momma was straight trash just like Quays!! Cario and Milan from a one night stand to forever…she’s his lil duck off!! One thing about Brick City Projects is that everyone takes care of their own. Papi’s Bodega seems to be the spot to be. Mane brick city ain’t no joke but it sure taught these couples how to get it out the mud!!

Must Read
Brick City Projects may seem like it's full of poverty, broken promises and broken dreams, but it definitely build a lot of the residence strength and resilience. While some was comfortable with the way they were living. Many of them made it out and became successful but never forgot where they came from. Once again these Authors executed and penned stories that are a lot of people reality. They made the good outweigh the bad

This anthology did not disappoint! All five volumes came with that heat! Good job to all the authors that contributed to this project! What I like most, is how some of the stories incorporated some of our favorite characters & places from past stories (Jagoda City & Paradise Bay) I thought that was really dope.

EXCELLENT READ
Loved it. Sorry to see the Brick City Project Anthology ending. Each story has humor, sadness and real life situations but most had a happy ending. Looking forward to next collaborating about these authors.
