Very tough and brutal read of life in the hood amongst those driven by money, greed, and fashion. The heroine is ruthless but sympathetic reflection of the drug culture ethos of flashy cars and obsession with power. Keeps you in the chair.

Both raw and forthright in the narrative - strong moral undertones, but without being really preachy! This edition comes with more of the author's thoughts in the "collector's edition" appendices.

Great story and character development. Sister Souljah's words are raw and upfront!

As a born and raised girl from the Brooklyn "pj's", this hood novela is fun, raw, upfront and an entertaining read.

great book, but I didn't like how I could guess what happened next. I was looking forward to more curiosity and suspense.

A cautionary tale of the downfall of an entire family due to drug dealing. At the end of the book, the author goes into great details of the main charactar weakness and strengths. My only critique is that I would have liked to get…

After constantly hearing about this book, I finally read it. I have since then hated the fact that it is always referred to as an "urban book/story", because it is so much more than that. It was a truly beautiful story that is written in a…
