The first 20% was interesting because two best friends turned on one another after 👂ing some he said-she said, gossip. Taking it to ❤ and
then shooting his friend dead. One mom has to endure that pain. The rest of the book was 80% boring to read. I couldn't relate to the characters or the storyline. IMO, it was a mistake to combine these stories in one novel.

It was an interesting and quick read. I didn't care for the authors' commentary after every paragraph however the story flowed at some parts and stalled at others. This story seemed to be worded or told from a personal experience. I enjoy Sa'id reads however I am noticing some of his stories are a hit or miss. You have to take your chance.

Two books in one..

The last 48 is 4*s the trap is 2*s so I averaged it at 3. The last 48 is about a mother's grief. She had to live across the street from her son's killer. The other book was just not my style.

Mr. Salaam, always coming with RAW reality. That was quite a tale. When a brother finally decides to get right and convinces his mom to do the same, life changes in an instant.

Short but direct

This short story was very inspirational. That ending was explosive! Didn't expect that. Leaves you wondering what could've happened next.

Such a good book. I liked the suspense build up. That definitely wasn’t the ending I was expecting or hoping for.
