Good

This book was surprisingly really good. I really like the characters. Especially the main character Chris. Nothing like a man with a nice package.

Decent read

This was a pretty good read. I enjoyed the dynamic of the family and I'm assuming this is the first installment in a series from the way it ended. I would read more.

Good Story

This audio was good and I enjoyed it. It shows that if you play your cards right - you can get out of the game. A lot of individuals fail to recognize why there are drug dealers in the hood and who started the teen and still to this day benefiting from his. It’s always the low level dealers getting punish while the big fish continues to get away and profit off our backs.

I enjoyed listening to this book. I'm glad how it ended. Glad he got out the game & realized what was important.

Great Read’

I was hesitant to read this book. But I decided to start reading it and stop if I didn’t like where I thought it was going. I’m so glad I decided to try. This book was an excellent read from start to finish.

Drug boys

The story line was good. I liked the fact that he got in , did what he had to do and got out. It is not an easy thing to do but life has to be lived. You get the money, work hard, enjoy it

Interesting

The character developing from each, only tried to improve for the better with the circumstances in which they were already in. The characters involved all seemed to have struggles and figured how to get it out the mud with a connect from Dad’s supplier. The audible was a good listen for me

So so

The story was interesting. But the narrator wasn’t any good. I’ve heard him read other books and it was just the same.

Great read

I like the characters, the them, the narrators, and the grittiness of street life. But I especially liked the ending, always rooting for the underdogs.
