"From a Thug 2 a Man II" again picks up with the life of Qu'Ron Smith. He has gone through a whole lot in his short lifetime only to end up going through a lot more. Qu'Ron has decided it's time to get out of the drug, murder and money game and really become a man.I must admit when I started reading this novel, I was thrown off by all of the slang used. Once I got past that, I really started to settle into the story. It's true; the streets hold only death and destruction and you will definitely have to pay for the choices you make in this life.I felt when reading the novel that parts of the story were missing meaning. So much was happening so fast and it seemed like time was not clearly represented. I understand if the author noted every year of Qu'Ron's journey that the book would've been many more chapters. It seemed to me that he grew up overnight and the years of incarceration flew by and pieces were missing as a result.I think the author, C-Note, represented the street game well in the novel, and I really did enjoy it. "From a Thug 2 a Man II" could have received a higher rating, but what I couldn't get past were all the grammatical errors in the book. Editing is one of the most important tools that every author should utilize. Unfortunately, this one missed the mark. After finding so many mistakes it really became a hindrance. I, however, am anticipating the 3rd book in the series.Reviewed by: Lisa M.3.5 stars
