The Girls from da Hood, Book 1

By: Nikki Turner, Roy Glenn, Chunichi

Narrated by: iiKane

For Unique, life is good until her dope-dealing boyfriend, Took, is arrested and winds up in jail. Now she's broke as a joke, trying to put every petty hustle into play to chase hard times away from the door. With an empty refrigerator, a stack of bills piling up, a tenth-grade education, a big butt and a smile, it doesn't take long for her to learn to pull the wool over the eyes of any fool who's blinded by her good looks. She's sure that one day some guy's slip-up will be her ultimate come-up, and her days of nickel-and-dime swindles will be a thing of the past. Unique knows that every scandalous chick has her day but doesn't realize that her day will come, too!

If luck were money, Nina Thomas would be one broke sister. After taking a stab at stripping, she finds herself once again on the wrong end of a bad choice. Now she's on trial for murder, and the consequences of spending too much time with the wrong folks might just end up costing her life. Anyeh is out for revenge, and with the help of a secret friend on the other end of her cell phone, known only as "my baby", she just might get what she wants. She's after Diablo, the most well-known hustler in Virginia. He's one careful brother, but in the end his feelings for Anyeh might just be his undoing.

It was Okay

I had to keep up with the story line too much going on. Overall the narrate kept my attention with her switching voices which kept my interest.

Nikki can write

This book will keep your interest for sure. Each story tells a true story. Girls do what they have to to get what they need or want. At least what they think they want.

A good book but all over the place in the same sense

The stories are good but the book is all over the place it’s just jumps from one story to another

☺️

Overall it was an great book … I can’t lie I got a little confused because I didn’t know there were multiple stories but I enjoyed each of them

Religious tone

I enjoyed the book overall, however when the book was getting to the juiciest part here we go again!! All things are real & mysterious beings have no place amongst the true & living.. not bad. Next time leave the religious side at home
