Brooklyn 2

R.I.P. Tracy Brown I was so engaged in the story from start to finish, the ending of this story made you want more. I’m sorry that it’s not possible. I would recommend this book.

Great Read

Brooklyn was a tortured soul, and I hoped the ending would have turned out better for her. This is a great read- but I need a sequel!!

Tale Old As Time

Young girl falls for the fast life fast money . The drug dealer.

I hates everything about this book.
I didn't know the author passed away till I started listening. RIP.

The whole story so triggering. The mother not be leaving her own daughter.

The father is supposed to be a pastor but is a liar and a cheat.

Here's the trigger part the relationship with her sister that was me and my sister and my sister just passed away last year in May.

Being raised in the church I knew that life .

The whole gay storyline.

You couldn't cheer for the girl you knew from the start she was dead.

The other triggering part was I took a girlfriend in who was down on her luck once and I knew exactly what was going to happen there.

To me the whole drug gang aspect they would have just killed her then.

I just canceled Audible and this was my last credit and I really wanted a good book I pre-ordered it find out the other died and then the book was just trash.

Great story

Great plot, wonderful, twists, and turns! Stone, Tracy Brown really doesn’t let us down. The description doesn’t do the true story. Just

Slow burn

It’s was ok. Maybe slightly above average. Not a keep u on the edge of your seat book. Something to read if you’re bored. A few twist and turns but nothing major.

I loved the story but the reader made me want to stop

The reader made the voiced sound like they had speech impediments first i thought she was doing a New York accent impression but the character went to Maryland and the voices sounded like that too. I never want to hear her do an audio book again but the story was really good

The book

I will definitely miss reading Tracy Brown's book. This book was definitely a good one.

Not the best, not the worst, but horrible ending

I didn't like the ending. It felt like a cliffhanger. I didn't mins the narrator. I supposed because I never been to New York, and unsure of their accent. I guess it was an OK book but I was expecting more after reading the reviews.

Great Story

The story was written with great examples of unhealed trauma. Superb flow of writing and unexpected ending to the story.

Family dynamics

An excellent read and discussion. It covered so many aspects of life and family. Life-death- mourning loss of loved ones- deep love- forgiveness.
