The Cartel by Ashley Antoinette
4.0
2023 Update: Honestly, I had to read this again because I need to finish the series and it definitely did not disappoint. I forgot how many twist and turns Ashley and JaQuavis create with both the characters and the plot of this initial start to the series. Keep in mind that this contains a huge cast of characters; however, the authors do a great job in giving each character enough depth that it's easy to distinguish one from the other. I wouldn't recommend picking this up without the next one on hand simply because of the cliff hanger. I also wouldn't recommend trusting or getting attached to a single character. When dealing with a group like the Cartel and the Murder Mama's, it's no surprise that things get a little dicey in certain situations. Overall, this was a fun read and I'm excited to continue on with the next book in the series. CW: graphic sex, drug use, violence, gore, physical abuse, sexual assault, death, attempted murder, murder, and trafficking.
Soooo this book was freaking mind blowing! The story was crazy! I promise y’all I didn’t see half of the stuff coming that happened in this book. The only reason why I couldn’t find give it 5 Stars was because of the writing which didn’t quite appeal to me in some aspects. It became draining but other than that the plot was phenomenal! I have never read anything like that and the cliff hanger at the end forced me to go on amazon and order the next book. I can definitely tell this is going to be a series that I’m going to fly through. I need to see what can be recovered from the shamble of a family that was left after the events in this book. If you haven’t read it yet definitely give it a try.
