Bitch

As a person who reads urban/street fiction, I must say that Deja King held her own. The book matched the title in terms of how good it was. "Bitch" was off-the-hook...my pages kept turning and before I knew it the book had ended. I read the book in a day, and immediately started reading the sequel. The funny thing though, is that Precious really wasn't a bitch in dictionary terms. She was smart and a survivor who learned had to live the street life with very little room for error, which definitely made her a bitch in Deja King's terms (you have to check the book for King's definition). I, myself would never embrace the name bitch for myself under ANY other terms. I commend Precious for holding it down. The end was predictable just because everything that goes up must come down. But if I have gotten to know Precious like I think I have, book 2 will be vicious with her revenge. I highly recommend this book if you are into urban/street fiction. Biggup to Deja King...I'll be back with another review for "Bitch Reloaded." Peace and Blessings!!

Ms. King just gives it to straight..Precious is off the chain and takes not prisoners. This was a great job for her first novel. I enjoyed reading this one.

just finished "BITCH" and i found it to be very moving and exciting. Precious was a very complex and exciting character that i found very interesting. The book is fast moving and exciting that I recomend to anyone who enjoys a good read. Ms.King gets nothing but her due from this author. Excellent Job.

DEJA KING HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB.... I HAVE BEEN WAITIN FOR THIS BOOK FOR SO LONG AND I CAN TRULY SAY THAT IM NOT AT ALL DISSAPOINTED.... THIS BOOK WAS VERY FAST PACED AND DRAMA FILLED. THERE WERE MANY TWIST AND TURNS... I LIKE THE CHARCATER PRECIOUS VERY MUCH. SHE WAS A LITTLE OFF THE EDGE BUT I HONESTLY THINKS SHE HAS A GREAT HEART. THIS IS A GREAT READ FOR 2006... DEJA KEEP UP THE WORK MOMMA...

I have to agree with Ms. Jade when she wrote this is the best book of 2006! I read the entire book cover to cover in 24 hours. Precious wasn't your ordinary female in urban fiction books. She took charge of her life and she made things happen some good some bad, but she didn't become a victim. In this novel Daja King takes you on a ride of a young girl determined not to let the ghetto swallow her or will she be swallow the ghetto.
