Bonafide Street Thug by Donald Ray JohnsonWhat is a bonafide street thug? What characteristics do they possess? How do they know that they are a bonafide street thug? Do you know when you are in the presence of a bonafide street thug?Javoo is a bonafide street thug. He has no qualms about anything that he does on or in the streets. Javoo is that dude you go to when you want something handled. He is clearly about his paper and nothing gets in the way of him getting his paper. While Javoo is a thug, he is one of those thugs that thinks and plans things in advance. You don’t find many thugs like him that thinks before acting.  Javoo is in his own category. Javoo has a running partner, Cornelius. Now Cornelius is a bonafide street thug in his own way. He looks at Javoo as a saving grace and nothing comes between them. They are cool as fan and just like brothers.Javoo and Cornelius are moneymaking thugs who live life on the dangerous side. Javoo hooks up with Shalon, who is his woman on the side. Shalon loves and adores Javoo and is comfortable being the side woman. Cornelius’s lady is Chi Chi, rich and beautiful with a dangerous side that has been undiscovered until she got with Cornelius. Chi Chi has been wronged by Money Black and she is seeking revenge. Money Black is a gangster who thinks he runs the city but finds out that is not the case when going up against Javoo. Mayhem, murder, and drama ensue and are ride that you may not be ready to engage.I gave four stars for the drama and mayhem. This was not your typical jack boy story. Johnson takes us on the inside of the mind of an educated, thinking street thug. Refreshing read and absolutely enjoyed the twists and turns.Review Copy Provided By PublisherFormat: Kindle
