WHAT READERS ARE SAYING...

ABOUT THE BOOK

Hands down, one of the most enjoyable books I’ve read in a long time. It is funny, sharp, and touching. I couldn’t put it down. I stayed up until 1:00 in the morning to finish it, then had to pour myself a whiskey to come down from the high. 

— Georgios Vlachojannis

The dark humor and the serious add up to a gripping journey that pulls you in and doesn't let go until the last page. 

I now must await the publication of the second novel in this trilogy, to find out what happens to these new 'friends'... !

— Dana Crowe

I love how nuanced STREET was. I wasn't being spoon-fed. It also wasn't a political or depressing book with any disguised underlying message. Highly recommend!!!
