I'm in awe, this book was so unbelievably juicy. I could not stop reading it and I still want to know more about the Man In 3B.

daryl daryl daryl !! the thug you can take home to your mother ! ;)

i don't know what to even put in the review for this one here . I'm so surprised on that way it ended . I was so skeptical at first to buy it because it was $10 just for the Kindle Edition . this book was even more at Wal-Mart . eventually I gave in !! when I say this book is MOVIE material I mean just that ! I'd love to see this become a actual movie . it was so good I read it in about 3 days . somany twists and turns ! even after the fire and the man in 3b is killed everyone becomes a suspect ! I became mad reading it like " who would kill daryl ?! & why ?!" you think you'll have it figured out on who killed him but no Mr Weber throws something new into the story like damn who really did it ?! with good reason we find out the answers to all our questions during the epilogue of the story .

the characters were a trip !! they had me literally laughing out loud throughout the book ! the drug dealer and his dope head girlfriend, the stoop women who just have to be in everyone's business instead of minding their own, that man that's so unsatisfied with life he leaves to change it only to try to come back later ! the single father and his son were my favorites after mr daryl graham !! yet benny was so adorable I just wanted to hug him !! these characters were so realistic ! they were all characters you'd see in everyday life and I was intrigued to know more about all of them !

so many mysteries in this story too ! for example : ladies how excited would you be if your man brought home those " little blue boxes" every now and then ;) !! lol !! & what an ending ! I didn't know whether to be upset , surprised , or mad . hmm . very good job Mr Weber ! I'm upset it took me so long to buy it in the first place ! this is going into my Kindle favorites !!

Carl Weber knows how to write a good story. He didn't fail me here! Another fast read for me and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Another excellent read by Carl Weber. This book had me on edge, I couldn't wait to finish it. A definite page turner. Some of the characters were lovable, such as Daryl and Connie. Crystal made me sick to my stomache. I didn't like Slim at all. Ms. Bertha was a trip. Benny and Benny Sr. were quite a son and father team. Avery and Caine were quite interesting. I never expected it to end the way that it did. Great job Carl Weber. You now have a loyal fan in me.

Daryl Graham is the new resident in the apartment complex and he resides in apartment 3B. Since moving into the building, he has gained the attention of all the women in the building giving him the name THE MAN IN 3B. Benny helps bring new life to Connie making her husband upset (even though he wants nothing to do with her himself), he becomes a best friend to Benny when he needs one, and makes his ex-girlfriend Krystal realize what she is missing which hinders her once happy home. The lives of these characters is all drama, but when there is murder in the building they will have more drama then they ever imagined while trying to figure out who the culprit is.

I love Carl Weber's books and this one was no different. He did it again bringing the drama, craziness, and family mayhem all together in one book. I was on the age of my seat trying to figure out what was going to happen next and how all the drama all played out. Every time I thought I figured it out I was proven wrong. I do wish there was more on Daryl's past, that seemed to not be discussed in the book. This is something I would like to see from Weber in the future. Can't wait until his next release.

Love the writing. Love how the book led you to believe one thing. Then made you change your mind. Then brought you to another conclusion. Keeps you on your toes.

Never read a book by Carl Weber. But I really enjoyed it and will become his new fan.

Having had a chance to read The Man in 3B before the release, I was treated to a character that I couldn't help but enjoy from the moment he was introduced until the very end.

Oh, and let's not forget the "whodunit" undertones that were in play also after his unfortunate demise ;).

All the women wanted him, and all the men wanted to be him (and in one person's case, he wanted to be with him, too). I enjoyed the subplots that helped drive the story, but the eyes and focus were definitely on Mr. Graham, and rightfully so. From his religious affiliations to his slight flaw in his otherwise magnetic personality (you'll find out when you read the book), Darryl is definitely something of a modern Renaissance man, with an edge to him that makes him irresistible to almost any woman.

The women in the apartment building were a laugh riot, and put me in the days of In Living Color with the one woman that always said "Now, I ain't one to gossip, but" and then went on to spill the beans on what she knew with flair. The other women who also had their own dirt going on within the building before Darryl showed up were compelling in their own right.

I would recommend this book to anyone who asks me, and I'm definitely buying a few copies for friends and family members, too. (I won a copy of The Man in 3B in a prize giveaway prior to release...) Kudos, Mr. Weber, you have another good one on your hands!
