Broken Crayons Still Color 3: The Mirror of Regret

Rate this book
Having addictive genes can make life tricky for anyone. Being a major Hip-Hop artist– a self proclaimed rock star, being married to a woman whose investment firm made the Forbes list– while battling an ongoing struggle with pills, alcohol, and various allegations and attacks in the media– is downright exhausting. Devin does everything in his power to try to keep it together for the sake of his family, but often he falls short in his ambitious efforts. Where he falls short, Ashlon picks up his slack; and as a team, they work together to keep their family unit intact through the multiple threats that attack their strength. The mother of his child is in a difficult space as well. It's not easy being the baby mama of a famous artist, and despite their best efforts, communication is a constant task since they're both trying to explain worlds to each other that the other person doesn't live in. One of David Weaver's most personal and soul-clenching books ever. A tear-dropping, breath-taking classic that will go down as one of the most unforgettable stories ever written.

The Mirrors of Regret!

David Weaver talked about the pain that he and his family endured due to his drug ad alcohol abuse. It’s often said that you must acknowledge that you have a problem before you can start the healing, and he definitely did not acknowledge it in this book. Can’t wait to read book four, because that ending has me on pins and needles. By the way, I can’t wait for Lika to get her dose of karma!

Sad occurrence.

My heart goes out to Devin and his wife, Ashlon. They haven't been able to get a break. Devin is addicted to drugs, alcohol, pills and suffers from depression. He has not been able to acknowledge his shortcomings and get the help he needed. I think he wants to be better and do better but he is a lost soul. Both girls love him but they are children. Why was the section on the homeless man and his son included. The baby mother is the mother from hell. How are you going to have another man baby and expect Devin to pay her more. That is foolish . Banny is a very evil man. To the author, I say to continue to pray without ceasing. Things are happening to you for a reason. Put on righteousness as a breast plate, and an helmet of salvation upon your head. Trouble don't last always. Soon the storm in your life will past over.

All Over The Place

This book was not his best work AT ALL! Very hard to finish, minus the errors the story were just strange as hell! The part about the homeless man and son at the “red bus” made me want to delete the kindle app it was that damn ugh. If you read it you know and if you haven’t, don’t. Yes I saw his disclaimer at the end, still just being honest. He go have to come All the way with it once he back on his feet.

Devin can’t catch a break. He has a good heart but life continues to beat him up. This is something I can relate to. Life and the pain it sometimes bring. Something is seriously wrong with Lika. Why does she continue to give Devin hell is beyond me especially when it is revealed that she is the reason why her and Devin broke up. This is my first time reading a David Weaver series/book but this series is definitely a page turner.

wow

Thank you David we needed this book and I’m glad you were able to finish it. Even though you struggled with your addiction you also helped someone else with theirs. Sometimes writing can be so therapeutic for others you don’t realize that you are helping save someone else from their demons. I will continue to pray that you have a gift and will continue to bless us with your gift.

This is the deepest read that I have read in a while. I wanted to jump in the pages and fight some people. More like a beat down. Lika gave me a migraine. The writing is outstanding and to know that this series is of some real life pain. God is illimitable. As someone who balances mental health, I can relate to every thought and emotion. I pray that solace is found for better days. Peace and Blessings.

This series gets better with each installment.You can literally feel the pain pour through the pages. So many relatable instances especially for a person with a pure heart and good intentions.There is a lot to be learned. I can’t wait to see where this roller coaster ride takes us next!

Thank you.

Thank you for being transparent and for showing your heart. We both have a spirit of giving and we both have been mistreated in the process God doesn’t make mistakes and this book proves it. He has a plan for you and you are doing his will. It’s hard but I thank you for your tests because they WILL be testimonies. Much love and respect.

Good book

What I liked a about this book was that God always placed someone in his life that was in need n he was obedient each time, n by him being obedient he always received a blessing when he didn’t have a clue on how he was going to get it or make it but God was there in the midst of it all…

Ok the storyline is good, but I can't get into the books when you have so many years between the books! So, lets start with the way you books keep ending! I would not habe read any of the books if you would indicate to it would "to be continued"! Story readers don't like cliff hangers when it takes the writer so long to come out with the next book!

WOWWWWW

This book is beyond a five star rating. This book is beyond every book that I have read. This author is something different, in a class of its own. I have read hundreds of books from great authors but I have never experienced the feelings and emotions while reading.
Mr. Weaver delivered! Thank you Sir for turning your pain and past experiences into teachings.

My heart hurts 😢

This family can’t catch a break, Devin and his family need those monkeys off they backs. Bunny made a big mistake by putting his phone number on that letter he’s got to go. Lika’s needs her butt kicked. Waiting on 4👏🏾👏🏾

Another good one!!

This book was good... I had so many questions after reading the second one. Some were answered and some not but still a good read. There are lessons and messages that I can apply to my own life. Loved it. My prayers are with the author.

Another great book

I felt so bad for Devin because it seems no matter how hard he tries he just keeps spiraling out of control. The way the book ended I know there’s going to be a part 4. I can’t wait to find out who survived the shoot out.

Aww Man

I feel in love while reading the first Broken Crayons Still Color. Whether we as people want to admit it or not. There's a little bit of each one of us in your stories. Continue to grace us with your work. Job well done once again.

Best Book I’ve read in 2021

I’ve enjoyed this series and waited patiently for this book. I was not disappointed but wasn’t prepared for this story. Im going to be a mess until I read Part 4. Keep pushing David and give birth to this next masterpiece.

WOW

Good emotional read from beginning to end. I pray this young man has found the peace that he desperately need. What touched me most was he was going through so much himself but even through all that he reached out to help someone else. Good read Author David Weaver.

This was a good story, but there was one major flaw. Book two Ashlon told Devin she was pregnant when they were in Vegas. There was no mention of that baby at all in this book… was it a false pregnancy, miscarriage?
