Great story

the story line was very good; however, I didn't like the narration. I kept asking "who is we? "

Ok read

So this is my first audible book. The readers were okay. The story line seemed to drag on but there was nothing juicy. Usually, there is more with JaQuavis’ books. I will wait to see how the second part reads but just know I will always support my favorite writers even on off days, lol.

Love the performance the most.

I actually loved the production and narration of the book. It was creative and painted a vivid picture for the audience. I was intrigued the whole time. The storyline was good until the end but I can see the set up for part 2. So hopefully part 2 does it’s job and ties everything together.

Ok

Pros:
1. Nice story.
2. Short and to the point
3. The ending was really good. Wild & unexpected
4. I would definitely read (listen to) a part 2 if it were to come out

Cons:
1. Money was GREEN!!!!!! Lawd was he green! I understand there are folks with book smarts & street smarts but geez…he had all the book smarts and nothing else. And most kids of addicts have street smarts
2. Plays out like a screenplay. I didn’t really like that. It’s very descriptive so I didn’t need to hear them tell me about puddle sounds & chains clanking. I can picture it on my own.

Not his best

This by far wasn't Mr. Coleman's best work. It was all over the place. Next-time.

We heard.....

I heard some of the ladies in The Shades of Pink Social Book Club group on Facebook talking about this book. So I used my Audible credit and purchased it. Plus it’s by one of my favorite authors.

Overall the book was ok. At certain times I zoned out. I had to stay focused or I would get mixed up on what character it was.

I’m still trying to figure out in narration why the narrator always said “We heard,” for some reason that got on my nerves. I’m still a fan even though I enjoyed other JaQuavis books more.

We heard Monique say she still going to read/listen to part 2. 😂

Outstanding

From the beginning this story grabs your attention. The story line was so well put together and the narrator's really brought it to life. All the way beginning middle and end I was enthralled. Superb!!
