I really wanted to like this book, but I couldn't stop thinking the writer needs to find a good editor.

Citygirl's review is right on the mark. So is the one by Bookmarque, with numerous examples of the work's painfully bad writing.

I enjoyed this book. The 1st person narrator is drawn into a violent bid for drug sales territory by his brother as established seller and by his new girlfriends associates as aspiring seller. The lines are drawn between working citizens, those who live off the welfare system and those who live off crime (or some combination). The sex writing was ok, but a little bit TMI (if that is not a contradiction).

Great Book! Very insightful and this book was an excellent page turner. The character development was outstanding, and the story was a truly intriguing! I recommend this book.

As I was reading this book I thought maybe it was the first effort of a 19-year-old boy with an active fantasy life who doesn't get laid a lot and watches too many macho movies, but one who shows enough possibilty that maybe he'll develop into a real writer one day. Imagine my dismayed surprise to read in the back pages that this the sixth book by a middle-aged man who won the Chester Himes Black Mystery Writer of the Year Award. Clearly more black people need to write mysteries.

Anyway.

Cliched, juvenile, implausible and caricatured characters, thinks his readers are idiots, protagonist is a sexist pig.… (mehr)
