Rating: Summary: <YAWN> Review: This one is definitely not written with the likes of B-More Careful or any of the other top urban novels I've read. True To The Game started out interesting, but it lost me towards the middle of the book... This book had no structure. I didn't quite connect with any of the characters or even the story line, for that matter. The romance between Quadir and Gena didn't seem real and the book had an ill-effect with its heavy emphasis on the drug game and murder. I wouldn't recommend it.

Rating: Summary: A Real book reader knows a good book.... Review: True to the game was definitely hyped up. I mean, okay, first I'll give the author props on writing a book cause we do need more black authors, but it was poorly written with alot of mistakes that a good publishing company should have corrected. Second, the author added too many characters that you really couldn't keep up with. Thirdly, she didn't even describe any of the characters really. If you are an Omar Tyree, Sistah Souljah, or Eric J. Dickey fan DO NOT PICK UP THIS BOOK!! Because that means you are used to the author describing the characters to the tee; where you can actually visualize them in your head. This author doesn't do this and you will get frustrated trying to keep up. The storyline was weak also; like she just got tired of writing. The people that hype this book up usually don't read on a regular basis anyway so of course they don't know a good book when they read one. Thats why I said a real book reader knows a good book.
Rating: Summary: So good Review: I recommend this book to anyone that just wants to read a good book. This book was well written. This book included all aspects of the game from being up to being down to having it all to having nothing. I think that was really important to me. At one point in the book I was thinking man that would be nice to have then as I kept reading and I realized its not worth it. I believe alot of teenagers should read this book. I know it made me look at things in a different light. "Remeber everything your mother told you about that life.......its all true"
Rating: Summary: On Point Review: the kind of Book with Edge that keeps me interested from the time I open it until I'm finished reading it.this Book pulls no punches&just brings it.a Must Read&the Book takes you directly to what is going down.
Rating: Summary: EXCELLENT Review: I READ THIS BOOK IN A MATTER OF HOURS. IT WAS SO GOOD I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN. THIS BOOK REALLY MAKES YOU UNDERSTAND THE THINGS THAT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU FROM LIVING THE SO CALLED LIFE. THE MONEY SEEMS REALLY ENTICING, BUT NOT WORTH IT ( BELIEVE ME I KNOW )! IT WAS AMAZING HOW THIS BOOK WAS SO CLOSE TO HOME, AFTER I WAS DONE READING I CRIED LIKE A BABY. WONDERFUL BOOK!!!!
Rating: Summary: CANT EXPLAIN Review: I READ SO MANY BOOKS. TRU TO THE GAME WAS RECOMMENDED TO ME FROM A FRIEND. AND WHEN SHE WAS DONE I COULD NOT PUT THAT BOOK DOWN. IT WAS LIKE WHEN I WAS READING I PICTURED EVERY BODY AND EVERYTHING THEY WERE DOING. THIS WAS ONE BOOK I DID NOT WANT TO COME TO AN END. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK, AND LIKE I SAID, I READ A LOT OF BOOKS.
Rating: Summary: A truly amazing book!!! Review: I just finished this book about two days abo and i must say that i loved this book. It doesn't matter if you are black, white, whatever you will love, understand, and relate to this book. I hope everyone reads this book.
Rating: Summary: The Best Book Ever! Review: This book was great and 1 of the best. I could not put this book down. This book opened you up to how people are living their life, with the drug money, fast cars and jewelry. Every time I read another book I still think about this book. This book made you shed a tear! I had to keep reminding myself that it is only a book. Girls, even though the fast life is fun, it never last and people should look at what can and will happen when you stay in that lifestyle. Gena got to walk away with bags of money but everybody don't.
