Good read, just short

I liked it. Just too short. A little predictable.. how there is a part 2. I'm looking for it now.

Oh, wow. Like father, like son, like grandson. This book was a really good read. The father bossman was heartless, and Jabar his done would do anything to please him. After causing some much danger in the streets life took a turn for the worse. No one too fend for his son besides a loving grandmother Jabar to life to with streets as well. Was this wise? Awe well like father like son. Jabar bring no different from his father ended up the same way leaving his son Malik to fend for himself. Ask sorts of payback is happening and part 2 I hope to bee even juicier. Excellent job!

Realism like it or not

I enjoyed this book. I really felt it would resonate with younger readers. There is a fascination with a gangster lifestyle that leaves out the realities that this book brings to the fore. I would recommend that the author employ a better editing system as there are many mistakes in the book. Overall, an honest look at the issues of drug culture and the struggling family.

Just finished the book and oh my god! This book was truly amazing. I really LOVED the writing. I honestly was sad when I had got to the end of the book and I am sooooo excited to read the second book.

Errors

Many, many, many, many, many, many, many, grammatical and spelling errors. At one point, the author lost track of the characters. If I could give it 1.5 stars, I would have. I hope the next book is edited better!

This was a short and easy read. I would have liked to see more details but it was straight to the point. A catchy read! Heading over to Part 2.

The son

It was very sad that Malik's grandmom died. He has been through so much since the age of 7. I can't wait to read books 2 and 3.

Good read

Wondering if it is over, this is the first time that I have read anything by this author, so far so good.

Shallow suspense but entertaining

You can anticipate what will happen next. Not enough depth in storyline. Found many typos. Nevertheless, out of curiosity I will read 2 and 3.

It's Was Ok

Pretty decent read

I liked the story line. I think that they could have done a better job with the grammatical errors. There were way too many misspelled words in this book...

[Carolyn Taylor · Rating 5 out of 5]

Defiently a good read! Malik came back with vengeance to go after Shay, and Sye for the murder of his grandmother, and that what he did. Boss man can a the right time. Can't wait to read more.
