If you ever just want to read a good book, I recommend
True to the Game Trilogy. I've read True I in 2005 & I plan on to reading
True II & III for the longest effin' time,
but my laziness got the best me. I'll give a brief summary of the books.
True I
.....was about a young, naive girl named
Gena from the projects in Philly. She meets a self-millionaire drug dealer,
Quadir and they fall in love. Make a long story short, a rival crew shot & killed him, but he left Gena with the all the stash. The cops wants the money and the crew wants her dead.
True II
Gena meets this dude
Jay. She falls for this guy.
TYPICAL. This grimey dude is scheming on her & her cash, but reveals that he's the one that murdered her boyfriend,
Quadir in
True I. She's clueless at 1st, when she did she finds out ..she learns she's pregnant.
WOW. Jay beat her senseless, & then Quadir, whom we thought was dead, shot him & saved Gena.
True III
Gena is shocked Quadir alive. He tells her, a surgeon named Amelia saved his life, gave him an alias & kept him hidden. Only her, & his mom knew he was still alive. He told her, that
Amelia was his girl and left her devastated. He felt betrayed that she was messing w/ the guy that tried to kill him, even though she didn't know. Meanwhile, Jay's twin
Terrell is on loose. He's sexually assaults Gena's grandma, and her best-friend to get revenge at Gena. The cops are still hunting Gena & Q's boy is their informant.
EFFIN' SNITCH. Quadir admits he's loves Amelia but is still in love w/ Gena. They break-up. Gena & Quadir finds Terrell, shoot & kill him and they finally get married.
All of these books were so worth the read and all of them touched me in a different way! Cheesy, Maybe? I know. Hey, I'm a sucka for love. Teri girl, keep them coming. But, if anyone is interested in a good read - holla at them!
