C.R.E.A.M.: A Novel about the Streets

Solomon Jones has proven again that he is a great story teller. C.R.E.A.M. has all of the urban content that Mr. Jones is known for wrapped around the world of city politics. This book was a real page turner for me. Living in Philadelphia, this book was a real eye-opener. Although this is a work of fiction, it seems like many of the political deals are really happening. This book had me wondering about some of the actual public figures while taking me for a ride through the action. It was heartbreaking (but oh so real) to see Karima stand by her man and helping him try to run. I have read all of Solomon Jones' books and I have loved them all. He is definitely a must read for followers of urban fiction.

I LOVED THIS BOOK, not only because it stayed true to PHILADELPHIA, but because reading CREAM made me say "hey" didnt this just happen. This was the one for me, like in all your other books I was in CREAM's shoes with every turn of the pages. I would recommond this and all of Brother Jones' books to anyone who is an avid reader and loves Philadelphia folklore.

Suspense, intrigue, intelligent writing, money, power, and just a definite page turner!!!! Solomon Jones once again takes you through the many sections of the city of Philadelphia but this time with a strong political flavor from the walls of City Hall. Detective Lynch, now Captain Lynch is once again on the job. The ingenious way Mr. Jones intertwines the lives of his characters was brilliant. However once again, (as I did with Ride or Die) I have to use my imagination to conclude what takes place in the relationship between Karima, Bill, and her mother, Sharon. I'm not hatin', I look forward to your next book!!!!! Realistic fiction at its finest.

Ghetto drama married with intelligent writing - I have read and loved all of Solomon's books. Get it

C.R.E.A.M. is a must read this summer. I've read all of Solomon Jones' books and this one is by far the best. C.R.E.A.M., as well as all of the books, is a page turner. You'll be in suspence from the very beginning. As a Philly native and Temple grad, it's very intriguing to read about the areas that have been a part of my life. I encourage everyone to BUY a copy today! I guarantee that if this is the first book you've read by Solomon Jones, you'll be going to get Pipe Dreams, The Bridge and Ride or Die. You will not be disappointed.
