Rating:  Summary: Hats off to Joylynn Review: Dollar Bill was the story of a young man who was not only from the street sbut of the streets. Dallar had a cold heat, but an amazing plan to get his. Dollar did what Dollar did best hustle. This book was another page turner with amazing characters & an amazing story line. My hat is off to you Ms. Jossel & keep doing your thing. Terri McMillian may have opened the door, but Ms. Joylynn Jossel has moved in & taken over.
Rating:  Summary: Straight Garbage Fo' Sho' Review: I gave this read two stars only for the first chapter that I had read in the book The Game:Short Stories About the Life. It lead you to believe you really had a juicy story to follow. Well wrong answer this book had a very good plot but the author did not know how to tell a story. If she did Dollar wouldn't have been so stupid. Just doing dumb,mean and evil stuff. I wouldn't recommend this book as a street book because it seems like the same ol' same ol' without any positive message.
Rating:  Summary: Dollar Bill Review: I read this book awhile ago when it first came out. I just finshed reading and reviewing another one of her books so I mine as well say something about this one too.
I thought it was good. I look foward to reading more of her work.
Rating:  Summary: YOU GO GIRL!! Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. Keep doing what u doing and never mind what the haters say... u know the haters always gon' hate. This book is wassup. Much success Joy!
Rating:  Summary: Grimmy Review: I thought the book was good only for the simple fact that the ending was the best part. Besides that everything was predictable yet I give the author props so I supported him and Triple Crown Productions.
Rating:  Summary: Great Book Review: Joy you did it again! I truly enjoyed reading Dollar Bill. Dollar had the right intentions, just went about it the wrong way. I do not think the book was dragged out as one reviewer has suggested, instead it gave you insight into why Dollar did and made the decisions he made. I truly thought he would get out of the "game". Never expected it to end the way it did. Excellent read!!!!Now I can't wait for the sequel to "The Root Of All Evil".

Rating:  Summary: Dollar Bill Review: This book is the bomb, Joy is putting it down and showing her TCP co-authors mad love. A must read if you like the street life books this is one you definitely will add to your collection. Looking forward to Joy's next street life novel.
Rating:  Summary: Tanya Bates - C&B Book Reviewer Review: This gritty yet realistic novel takes the reader on a journey through the personal development of the main character Dareese A.K.A. Dollar. Dollar is committed to taking care of his family after the abandonment of his father. After a robbery turns into murder, Dollar finds himself exactly where he does not want to be.... away from his family. During his incarceration, the mysterious "Romeo" befriends Dollar who decided to take Dollar under his wing to teach the new `pup' some things about the streets. "Romeo" has a shocking deal that Dollar simply can not refuse. Dollar is given another chance at redemption only to find that the life he shut out while incarcerated has changed greatly. Once on the outside, Dollar decides to put to use the information that was shared with him by "Romeo". In no time at all, Dollar is drunk with power and makes choices that not only affect him but those he is supposed to care about. In the end, his whole world comes crashing down with Dollar thinking did I make the right decisions?
I would recommend this book as a good solid read
