Date: 01 23, 2013
Carl 'Hammer' Bobbit is a convict that loves his baby mama, LeLe, and his baby girl, Cataya. Hammer's ability to maintain control on the streets despite his incarceration gives him confidence that he's still able to dominate LeLe's life. When LeLe bucks the system, a tragedy occurs and there are two sides to the story...of which Cataya has only been told one. This causes resentment between father and daughter as well as Hammer's obnoxious overbearing behavior which further alienates them. There are alot of family secrets...but who's to know who's truth is really and truly the ultimate truth.Daddy Dearest is a quiet read that has an uneventful flow as it unfolds and the characters react, interact, and transact. What started off as a basic tale of a dominate father quickly turns into something completely different. The unpredictability added just a tad of energy but by the time it occurred, there wasn't enough to stir up any vigor with the read. Love, allegiance, deceit, jealousy, and murder are key components in Kevin Bullock's 'Daddy Dearest.' 2.88
