Not me rooting for the gangsta in the story lol. I liked the themes explored in this novel and was especially enraptured by the descriptions of driving the getaway cars. This is my fourth SA Cosby book and I'm def a fan!

Another great book with beautiful imagery and reflective themes by Cosby. Beau’s story is a sad one but is based in reality. Didn't love the car talk …

This one was a slow burn for me. While the ending was more realistic with everything not working out perfectly, I like my protagonist to come out more unscathed than Beauregard did.

Not my usual choice, but a good read. Very action packed, mentioned cars & guns a lot, which I wasn’t a fan of, but the themes of abandonment & the pressures of poverty was good.
