 Lets just say it a door stop November 9, 2008
I cant even finish this book. I tried to read this book, while I wait on the latest eric J to come out. I should have saved my money. The content is pure-d-trash. No depth, at all.
 And this is what all the fuss was about? November 6, 2008
After hearing all the hype about this book,I just had to read it and see what this so called classic was all about.And honestly I didnt see what all the fuss was about cause to me,this book was just ok.It started off kind of slow and she introduced too many unnecessary characters,The book really didnt hold my attention till almost the very end.The flow of this book was just off.And Gena wasnt smart at all..How are you going to be a drug dealers girl and not have any cash saved up...just dumb and green as hell.But any way I will read part 1 and 2 out of curiosity even though the reviews are terrible.
 I Loved It... October 18, 2008

GREAT!!!!! September 9, 2008
This is one of the first books I read and it had me hooked to Hood books ever since!!! This book was great and I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read hood books!!!!
 Damn Gena! August 24, 2008
I was pulled in from page one of this book. i truly enjoyed the story. i hated when Shahirah was killed that was not expected and Quadir OMG!!! I liked Quadir for deciding to get out of the game and try to live a normal life. although i hate the fact that he chose selling drugs over going to med school.
I think Ms. Shoog was hillarious i loved her developement. the storyline in this book flowed wonderfully. the drama in this book was intense. but what i don't understand is why Gena always saw the shooter in the car but never told anyone about her first run in? i figure why mention it if she wasn't? it could've only helped her man and his crew to avoid some of the pit falls they had to endure. So that's why i say DAMN GENA instead of trying to buy up Preu you could've prevented alot especially your investment Quadir! the characters always went to the club in this book but it never failed someone always got killed so why would they continue to go and not be prepared with the strickest of security? although this book was good it did lack a lot of common sense on the characters part.
Teri gave us a very climatic ending which i already have some things that i'm sure are going to be cleared up. i just have a feeling that what happened didn't end the way we think it did. Can't wait to crack it open since i have all three! you have a new fan in me Teri!
