Loved It, July 21, 2009
This review is from: Stackin' Paper 2 Genesis' Payback (Paperback)
I had stopped reading awhile ago but when my Aunt asked me to go to the Harlem Book Fair with her I couldn't help but pick up a book. I ended up picking up three. I had never read anything from this author but I was told all these books went together so I started with Trife Life To Lavish then Stackin' Paper and finally this one, which I loved. I'm so happy I had them all because it was easy for me to follow with the different twist and turns. This book had me glued. Of course I was rooting for my boy Genesis and CoCo since they were both locked up. I was shocked by what Tonya did never saw that one coming but she played her role to the fullest and both Denise and Monica got what they deserved. The ending had me re-reading over and over again. That completely threw me off but I loved every second of it even though it did make me cry. I recommend these books to everybody you will not be disappointed if anything you will be left wanting more. I'm off to order the rest of Ms. King's books as I'm now a fan!

An Urban Soap Opera, July 24, 2009
This review is from: Stackin' Paper 2 Genesis' Payback (Paperback)
Stackin Paper II is equivalent to an urban soap opera filled with characters that are attractive, seductive, glamorous and wealthy. The way in which Joy incorporates familiar characters from Bitch (Maya), Superstar (T-Roc) and Trife Life to Lavish (Genevieve/Nichelle) is extremely clever. It did take me a second to sort through all of the characters. Now that I've become reacquainted with them, I'm more than delighted with the outcome. I'm quite fascinated with Talisa's father, Jeffrey. He isn't a main character in Stackin Paper II but he's powerful and eerily mysterious. I suspect (hope) he'll be a vital component when concluding the storyline. I'm rating the book 4.5 stars due to the fact that I'm forced to wait to discover more about the lives of Genesis, Coco, Quentin and even the evil, Arnez. In conclusion, when the author states just how much she appreciates her fans ... PLEASE BELIEVE IT. Be sure to cop Stackin Paper II.

Stackin it up!, July 26, 2009
This review is from: Stackin' Paper 2 Genesis' Payback (Paperback)
Deja Joy King steps to the plate and hits a home run. Stackin Paper 2 is a special delivery and it does handle its business. Ms. King ties all loose ends in this the second installment of a long awaited sequel. She answers many questions, ties up loose ends, and sets the record straight...that Genesis is the man to be reckoned with. Come take this ride with Genesis as betrayal seems to follow him , the desire to love and be loved lives deep within his essence, and happiness seems to be right around the bend...but can he grasp and hold on to it...seems like love has always abandon him, but this time around will he finally find the love, harmony and bliss that he has been looking for ...in beautiful Talisha? She's faithful, loves, desires, and rides for him, but is that enough? There are many surprises within this novel and each surprise is strategically place; right up to the ending, which is the most creative of all. I really did enjoy, Stackin Paper 2, however you may need to read Ms. King's earlier work, which will enable you to know the cast of characters. Kudos are in order for Ms. King.
