Ratings and reviews

I just read the sample but when i get my check imma read the rest. Shout outs to all my cousins and friends~dont let death do you wrong.

I've read all the Donald G. Books I could get my hands on .(enjoyed all of them ) I was looking for something new but similar. K won gets it.Gutter and Gangsta are now 2 of my most recommend books...I love stories I can relate to. I'm a father and a husband now. So the street are behind me. Now i just live in these books.

I think "Animal" should be done first with Lloyd playing Animal. He's got the wild unruly hair and the prettiest complexion, it's like the part was written just for him. K'Wan get at me I'll give you a sure fire line up to break the box offices!!!
