Hello all.. happy holidays to you. In response to your question, Troy, I found myself unable to put the book down. Thumper called it slow...that was COMPLETELY false. There was drama on every page. Thumper said that the writing was not good. This also was false. The author did a great and I mean great job of bringing six very real characters to life on paper. We all know one or more of the characters. And the situations they dealt with were very, very real. I know, because I went through something very to similar to the character Shay. Maybe Thumper should do stand up instead of book reviews if he's looking for a laugh. Hopefully the author did not get discouraged by Thumper's way off review. It was a truly entertaining novel. The characters were real. For a male, he did a superb job writing female characters! You should take a chance and read the book. Like I said before, you may or may not like it. But don't let Thumper influence you. He called it a throwback novel and I guess in these street fiction days and times, it is. But it's one that we all can and will always be able to relate to because we all have relationship issues! I know I do!! LOL OK.. that's all for me.. Thumper's review just aggrivated me... I've read others by him and have been equally as annoyed. Maybe you should get other reviewers to balance him out. Happy New Year! |
