I didn't know I would enjoy this book so much. it shows a real family with real finances, never too terrible, never too sweet, a real family . I'm so happy to have my grandkids listening to it on trips.. language is wonderful. smart book .

creates a convincing universe of flawed heroes... intelligent dialogue, plot is complicated, but the essential elements are clear.. I think I'll read everything by Don Winslow.. read about 5 so far..

i enjoyed it enormously. not perfect but really fun for a Nigerian-American to look at his birth country through American eyes..
if this narrator stocks with this writer and if it becomes a series, please check pronunciation of Nigerian place names.. accents we're great, persona of voices we're great but every time I heard Kayno instead of Kahno I spent a few minutes being bugged..

like a 50s mummy movie.. just not interesting cause there's no human motivations.. everyone is a caricature..

nice enough.. i listened all the way.. but.. simple? too long by an hour? the descriptions were conventional, phrasing too..
i don't listen for the story but for the writing and this never soared.

i stopped listening after a few minutes.. came back a month later.. was it the violence that put me off, or adjusting to the reader's accent? something.. others have mentioned that..
but once you start listening, the portrait of Cuba and of the acting world in LA, and the chasm between the rich and poor in Colorado, are all so vivid that they stay with you.. you feel like you know them now, that you know something real about those worlds.. the story unfolds in a mckinty way, complicated and layered..

don't know why i kept on.. too many descriptions of lush wealth with a lot of lip service about the virtues of not being rich .

started slow with too much setup.. but it's clever, a bit self deprecating, makes references to other crime fiction.. and the value of crime fiction.. fun.. .. .. I'm looking up more in the series right now..
