Intense and gripping. I really felt for Bug and was rooting for him the entire time. That’s what I really like about Cosby’s writing and characters. These are people who commit intense crimes and are flawed, but they’re complex and Cosby deals with them in all these intricate and interesting ways.

Lord. What a book. The writing style is very straight forward and heavy on the similes, but it had a nice flow that kept the book going and going. It was a wild one for sure.
