So why would I read Life After Death given how underwhelmed I was by her previous work? Growth. I read Midnight, based on a character from CWE, years later and was also unimpressed. I was 28 when I read CWE and it wasn't the amazing read others said it was, in my humble opinion, but like I said, it was a different voice. ), was a fresh, new voice in the realm of urban lit. So Sister Souljah, she who inspired some and was a controversial figure for others in the 90s (revisit the role she played in Bill Clinton's 92 presidential campaign. Donald Goines was one of the originators of the genre, but his books were most popular in the early 70s and were mostly out of print by then, as were Iceberg Slim's books. Up until then, there wasn't a wide variety of street/urban lit. When I read The Coldest Winter Ever back in 99, it was unlike anything I'd ever read, and I've always read a lot. Let me just start with sis, what in the entire hell was this? Also, I'm about to drop spoilers so if you don't want to know why I gave this such a low rating, go ahead and click out, scroll past, do what you have to do.
True fans won’t let Winter travel alone on this amazing journey. That’s what Winter thinks.Ī heartwarming, heart-burning, passionate, sexual, comical, and completely original adventure is about to happen in real time-raw, shocking, soulful, and shameless.
Hell is the same as any hood and certainly the Brooklyn hood she grew up in.
Will she blow Winter’s head off? Can Winter dodge the bullets? Or will at least one bullet blast Winter into another world? Either way Winter is fearless. Simone, Winter’s young business partner and friend, is locked and loaded and Winter is her target. But Winter is not the only one with revenge on her mind. She’s eager to pay back her enemies, rebuild her father’s empire, reset his crown, and ultimately to snatch Midnight back into her life no matter which bitch had him while she was locked up. Still stunning, still pretty, still bold, still loves her father more than any man in the world, still got her hustle and high fashion flow. The long-anticipated sequel to Sister Souljah’s million copy New York Times bestseller The Coldest Winter Ever.
