One of Them Ones by Yola Money
This was a great read! Every time I thought the story was about to go one way, it went in a completely different direction. That’s what kept me hooked…the storyline wasn’t predictable.
I really thought Flip was going to make it out. I pictured him becoming a baseball star, ending up with the girl, and getting that Jason’s Lyric-type happy ending. But the streets had other plans.
What got me was that Flip was trying to escape the life he was born into and create something better for himself. Unfortunately, the circumstances that made him so desperate to change his future also became his downfall. It was a reminder that sometimes talent alone isn’t enough when you’re constantly fighting your environment.
I definitely recommend this one if you’re looking for a street novel. Urban Fiction Author | Music Producer
