Review: Another Takerra banger

Although "The Lonely Pole" was slightly different from Takerra's other books, it still had the superb writing style, dramatic plot, memorable characters, attention to detail, and twists and turns that I expect from a Takerra Allen novel. As soon as I found out it was released, I headed to Amazon, 1-clicked, began it immediately and finished within a few hours. The book was over 300 pages but I never felt that the plot dragged on or any of the details and situations were unnecessary. I loved how each character had flaws and were comparable to someone in each of our lives. They all had back stories that led them to be in their current situations, and while each person was different in a sense they were all the same. My favorite character was Baby..aka Athena...and not only because we share the same name. She was so hardworking and motivated, yet so young and impressionable that she made me want to just grab her and hug her before yelling at her. As in all of Takerra's novels, the relationships in the "Lonely Pole" took me on an emotional roller coaster and I loved every minute of it.I loved some of the characters and relationships with the same passion that I hated others and I can't wait to reconnect with them in part 2.
