5.0 out of 5 stars That's wild..., March 24, 2004

By	Shamontiel L. Vaughn "Web Editor, Author, Rev... (Chicago) - See all my reviews

These stories all had the same basic theme--greed just isn't worth it. All of the characters were well crafted, the dialogue was fresh, and there was humor left and right. The first story about the neighbors was just funny, the second was inspiring but seemed really unrealistic (although the characters were cool), but the third one was so wild that it seemed very realistic. The last one stood out way for than the other two just because it had a beginning, middle, and an end whereas the first two seemed rushed to get to the end. I enjoyed this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Deserves More Than Five Stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!, January 20, 2004

By	N. Powell "topazzz6" (Albany,NY) - See all my reviews

This was the best book that I have ever read where all the short stories were good. Usually one story is good and the others are mediocre. It really doesn't surprise me because Carl Weber is involved. I can't really say I liked one story more than any other because they were all wonderfully entertaining.
EASY STREET-If you liked Addicted by Zane you'll enjoy this story.
GHETTO FABULOUS- If you enjoyed B-More Careful by Shannon Holmes you'll enjoy this story. And last but definitely not least ONE NIGHT SIX DREAMS-If you liked Shades of Jade by Gloria Mallette you will love this story. This author is going to do very well on the scene with his plot twists and turns. I salute all of these writers on a job well done.

4.0 out of 5 stars I Loved It!, January 11, 2004

By	jahva28 "jahva28" (St. Louis, Mo United States) - See all my reviews

This is the first book I've read by Carl Weber and I must say I enjoyed all three stories. My favorite was "Easy Street" because the ending was so unexpected. At first, I did'nt like the second story but after sticking with it until the end I was pleasantly pleased. Now the last story was one rollercoaster ride and shows what power money and greed can have on people. The book also contains an excerpt from Carl Weber's upcoming novel "Player Haters" which appears to be interesting. If you want to read something a little different than what's saturating our reading market I recommend "A Dollar and a Dream!" Great stories which have empowered me to keep the faith that my dollar and a dream will manifest.
