Book Review: A Completely Different POV
Summary: 1 Stars
I officially know not to buy another Nikki Turner book, her style and stories just aren't for me. The struggles and underlying themes are the same: karma, because what goes around comes around, hold your man down for whatever because if he sets you up you move on, but remember hold yourself down while staying in full length furs, and get all of someone else's money for the best revenge.
Maybe I'm spoiled after reading Mina's Joint but I don't feel the love and passion between Turner's characters in any of her books. All I get from them is that they are about a hustle. Hustle him, them, work, blah blah blah. She makes love a hustle because drugs are involved.
I'm not trying to say anyone is copying anyone but what's up with the few sentences about Bambi having a sister named Yarni. Hustler's Wife didn't make much of an impression on me but that's the name. At least the sisters can bond over their experiences of hustling. Awww
