Book Reviews of The Bitch is Back (Triple Crown Publications Presents)
Book Review: IT WAS SOMEWHAT DECENT
Summary: 4 Stars
I BELIEVE DEJA WAS STRETCHING IT WHEN SHE WROTE THIS ONE...BUT ALL & ALL IT WAS SOMEWHAT DECENT.Book Review: It was good, but . . .
Summary: 3 Stars
I hate to admit it, because I like Deja King as much as I love Noire and Shay (Raw: An Erotic Street Tale) , but this book really did let me down.
Precious is of course, true to form . . . she's a bitch. And that's what I love about her. But she seems like a bitch out of her element with the family having moved to a ritzy part of California. Maybe that's why the author has to have Precious continually making contact or traveling to NYC, to keep the action realistic and continuous.
Also, I was disappointed in the deteoriation of the relationship between Precious and Supreme. When Nico got back on the scene in Bitch Reloaded I suspected that somehow he and Precious were going to get back together, so maybe this is how the author is going to handle it. Still, I hate that she's making Supreme seem like a clueless punk.
And there were too many things that didn't make sense. If the guy in New York could track Nico and everyone else down for Precious, how come she never once asked him to track down Pretty Mike, the man who kidnapped her daughter? And I have another question, which I can't ask because it would reveal too much about the plot line . . . but let me just say, after reading the book, it doesn't make sense to me as to why her daughter was kidnapped in the first place.
And then . . . I have to agree with a couple of other reviewers here . . . I love book series, but I HATE books that MAKE you read the next book in the series in order to find out how the problem in the prevous book was resolved, and that's just what this book does.
I will be purchasing Queen Bitch, because I still admire Deja King and want to give her another shot, but I have to say I was disappointed with this particular book.
Book Review: It's Going Down
Summary: 4 Stars
The Bitch is Back by Deja King is the third installment of the Bitch series and still has Precious Mills (nee Cummings) getting down for what she believes.
Living lavishly with her music mogal husband, Supreme, and their infant daughter, Aaliyah, all of Precious' dreams had come true. Her fairytale world began to crumble when she was informed that Aaliyah had been abducted at a park while with her nanny, Anna. Though Precious appeared to have tamed her wild ways, the kidnapping reawakened the beast her followers once knew as she hunted for her daughter; she was out for blood. Her anger heightened when she found out her rapist, who was supposed to be incarcerated, may have had Aaliyah.
Knowing her daughter's fate was in her hands, Precious was propelled to lie to her husband, lash out at those who genuinely cared for her, and reached out to Nico, who previously attempted to kill her. How could such a wonderful world become hell without warning? It can happen when you couple unresolved conflicts with greed and the creativity of Deja King.
The Bitch is back delivered on its title. While Precious still donned the softer side she had in the series' second installment, Bitch Reloaded, she no doubt lets us know that she still has it in her. The author did a great job of incorporating the characters back stories so the novel works well as a stand-alone. I loved the emotional conflict Precious had over Nico because of its realism, but I was a bit disappointed with the dialogue toward the end of the story. I felt they were too detailed, but to give an example would spoil the plot. Hopefully, Deja King will drop the fourth installment as soon as possible. The cliffhanger ending was totally unexpected, but I am not quite sure if Precious has enough steam to captivate readers one more time...or can she?

Book Review: Just as good as the others ;-)
Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed reading this. I've read the first two in this series and without giving anything away, the ending definately means there has to be a fourth book. To be honest, I didn't know whether to give this 4 or 5 stars because while I loved it, I didn't love it quite as much as the first two installments. You really should know the story before picking this one up. I think it would be hard to fully understand Precious without having read the first two and also to know how deep her and Surpreme's love is. The first two books are what make Precious, Precious and without them, you may not enjoy it like you otherwise would.
I had a feeling I knew who the kidnappers were and how it might pan out. I was right and yet not disappointed because nothing is ever really given away. It's a gripping story and a quick read. With the large print and exciting story, you'll have read it in no time flat. I loved it and hope you will too.
