2.0 out of 5 stars Really...?, July 21, 2010

This review is from: A Boogie Down Story (Paperback)

This book wasn't worth the read at all! If you can get it from the local library, I would HIGHLY suggest that. Save your money. Although the book starts off great once you get into the book it's like these characters are at a standstill. Usually I can get through one of these books in a day or two. This book took me almost a week!! It just lacks action and adventure that most books have. I just feel like she could have done so much more with the story line. In the end, your kinds left hanging!!! Also, the grammar and spelling errors turned me OFF! Overall, if you intend to be entertained by a book, this is not the one!! Move on to the next choice on your urban fiction book list.

--peace && love.
