Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good read
Review: When I first recieved this book I had reservations about reading it. I was not really interested in a college book that featured four friends. I was not interested in reading about their love life or their fraternity. I was pleasantly surprised when I began reading this book. I really enjoyed it.

Yes, the men had women problems, but it was not to sole focus of the book. These men wealthy, debonair Larry, struggling Terrance, playing preacher OJ, and virginal Brandon had a goal. The goal, beside graduating from college was to give back to the community where the University was located. They were going to save the Ellis Center. This was a difficult task as they faced opposition from those who wanted the center closed. These young men still pressed toward their goal.

In the time frame of the book, the men grow as people as they get closer to graduation. They take another look at things they were passionate about.

I thought it was a well written book. An interesting story and a few good lessons found in the pages.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I can't take it!
Review: Whoever said in their ratings that it takes awhile to get into this book was dead-on! I can't even finish it. Eighty pages into the story and the author still hasn't gotten into the plot. All he's doing is describing how rich they are and what material things they have and their opinions on women, blahzay blah. I think the idea for this story is great but there are so many flaws in this novel, that it's driving me crazy. #1 The dialogue goes from broken English, to hoodrich, to cocktail conversation all within the same person. Make up your mind! #2 The author spends entirely too much time talking about one guy's campaign...was one of his degrees in Political Science because if it wasn't, it should have been!!! #3 If I hear about one more person's car or clothes or money, I'm going to start thinking Cash Money is friends with C. Kelly Robinson.
This book is a complete disappointment but because I didn't finish it, I'll be fair and give it three stars considering other people seemed to like it!
