An interesting story that was really good but this book needs to be professionally proofread first. Then edited by a professional before distribution. Why? There were too many errors.

My expectations for this book were very low because of the title, but I was pleasantly surprised with how instantly enthralled I became in the book. From the first chapter, Lyrica set the pace and I loved the character development that later followed for the supporting cast. There could have been a lot better editing, and some of the connections between characters in this huge world were a little far fetched, but overall, it was a really good read and I got the rest of the series right after I finished.

I was initially leery because I was definitely judging the book by the typos but I read realized I can barely type an email out without having to use spellcheck so I sat my judgmental ass down! (lol) I really enjoyed this book! I felt bad for Yasmina and all I could do was picture this guy from the new Superfly as being Lucky, the guy in the Snow Patrol. (You’d have to watch the movie.) Lyrica is something else! She was vindictive from the beginning but that ending though! I could kind of put two and two together when I realized Sol’s cousin and aunt were talking about telling more and then she dropped the bomb to Saint. Now Saint, that man sounds like a chocolate greek god and I’m here for it! I just downloaded part 2 so I’m excited about that!

Trifling Chick Alert

I skeptical to read this book after I saw the title, but it was full of drama twists I didn't expect at the end. Lyrics is a hot & trifling mess that kept me laughing with her crazy reasons for doing things. Ready for part 2 so I can see what happens next and shock once all is revealed.

From the very beginning, Lyrica was that character that was easy to hate. She was manipulative, beyond what is even logical for those who have had an adverse upbringing. This installment in the "Thot Next Door" series was a seemingly never-ending ride in the tumultuous life of Lyrica, who is a transgendered woman, in search of her next "lick" so she can afford to have 1 of many coveted surgeries that will have her looking like the woman he already feels himself to be.

Of course, this process, for Lyrica, doesn't come without its share of close calls and dangerous slip-ups that s/he somehow finagles his/her way out of. It was only a matter of time before karma paid Lyrica a visit...

Which was revealed in Part 2 ;-)

I jump in this book as soon as the title jumps on my kindle. I knew it would be some ratchetness and Author N’ Dia Ra didn’t disappoint me. I’m not sure which character I love the most. Lyrica had me rolling on the plane while reading this juicy hot mess. (lol) Soleil is the woman every man would love on his side. This ending has a twisted and I mean deep twisted plot involving dark secrets between Soleil and Lyrica. Looks like I’ll be on standby awaiting the sequel.

Twists and Turns

The Thot next door is exciting and keeps you in suspense . So much is going on and it all somehow connects !! I have an issue with the words . Was this book proof read for misspelled words ? There is a lot of drama , deceit and lies. I do not know who to trust and believe .

Plot Twist

Great urban read but the numerous grammatical errors really took away from the story. I love how the story ended with the perfect plot twist. Everybody is connected one way or another and I cant wait to read part 2 to see how this all comes to an end. This book has everything there is to love about urban fiction...sex, drugs, thots and so much more.

Hot mess!!

Lyrica is something else!! I figured out Soleil's secret and Lyrics's right before it unfolded. I'm very curious to see what's to come but not sure yet if I want to continue on. The typos takes this story down a star...sorry, I need to read better edited books in order to want to continue following the stories and authors.

Read because a coworker recommended it as the style of wild raunchy erotica they enjoy reading.

It was trippy, full of DC inner city slang and had a raunchy and unpredictable twist.

First in a series, never brought myself to reading the other sequels. It is definitely is an out of the box concept.

Wow

This was a good read . I love the connections that tied the characters together in the storyline . That Lyrica is despicable I can’t believe how she has gotten away with her antics. I love Sol and Saints relationship however that Amala is trouble. I can’t wait to read the next two books. Oh yeah Yasmina I’m rooting for you boo .

This book drew me in from the first page. It kept me in suspense and I couldn’t wait to see what happened next. Although there were noticeable errors with grammar, I still gave it five stars. That Lyrica is a character!

Saints and Sinners

Severs and lies will divide any relationship. The desire to change ones path can be challenging, especially if greed rules your soul. Lyrica, Chanel and all of Sol's hater fate is 6ft away. Part 2 promises to be another page turning delight.

Um um um

I knew there was some secrets that needed to come out. But that Lyrica is something else. Claiming someone that don't even know she exists is something else. And Saint mommy and sister. Lort have mercy.

Good story but ending was disappointing

The ending felt rush. And try as I did I just could not get through the grammatical and spelling errors. I was enjoying the story until the last few chapters when it all just became a convoluted mess.
