“In interviews, one of the most difficult questions I’ve been asked is, ‘What genre are your novels?’ because honestly, I never write with any particular style in mind. I enjoy blending styles and mashing different genres together in interesting ways. Basically, I pen whatever is in my heart and soul. However, if I had to describe my style I would use musical terms and say that I write Urban, Hip-Hop, fiction with the rhythm of Reggae that crashed into Heavy Metal and then began to bleed Neo Soul. I write Alternative Urban Fiction.”
One of the things I'm most proud of is how my children look at me with pride because I'm accomplishing my goals and doing the things I set out to do with my career. They recognize and respect my passion. I write constantly and I already have the titles & plots lined up for my next 92 novels. This is what I do and I'm just trying to let the rest of the world know this. My ambition is to become as legendary as some of the writers I admire. I believe that a GOOD writer pulls you into their story. A GREAT writer makes the world around you fall away as you read. The LEGENDARY writers tell stories that become a part of you and linger long after you've read the last line of the last chapter. It was once said that, the pen is mightier than the sword. I say to my fellow AUTHORS: Let's advance our craft until it's mightier than guns, grenades, bullets & nuclear bombs. If not, then put your pen down and fall back. Those of us who are serious about this will run you over as if we were riding in tanks.” – Keith Kareem Williams

WOW. This book is 545 pages of on the edge of your seat reading and I enjoyed every page of it. The book is a compilation of all of Keith's books, a few chapters of each. To do a review for each would be a novel in and of itself. The characters of each book had me gripped. Raw. Personal and down right outstanding. I felt like I was in the living rooms of the characters. I felt like I was in New York standing face to face with each character. As I was reading, the stories reminded me of Sista Soulja and her character Midnight in her books by the same name. I do not read many male authors, Keith Kareem Williams has a new fan. I have read one of his books, Tourniquet and enjoyed it. Now I will be diving into all of his books starting with, Water Flows Under Doors, though I liked them all, this one was tops for me. Outstanding. Never stop writing, you got this.
