This was an interesting read. I learned more about the history of hip hop and the businesses that the 3 Kings 👑 have masterminded is impressive. 🎙🎧🎼

This book details a life of living in RVs, vans and campers after the age of retirement, (although it does include stories of some that are younger) and working low wage, very labor intensive seasonal jobs. The book introduced me to a subculture I didn't know existed. It makes me cringe to think of anyone being forced to work and live in that capacity for survival. 💔 Corporations should pay everyone a livable wage not a minimum wage!

This book is definitely a pick! I assume this book was a progressive read when it was released but I found it just as fascinating reading it today. So many interesting characters that kept me engrossed in every page. I've already ordered the second book and I am looking forward to finding out more about Mrs. Madrigal's past and what may happen next on Barbary Lane.

Reggie This is not to take away from the story but it gets very soap opera-ey. It‘s pretty good. Glad you‘re liking it. 6y
CarolynM So glad you enjoyed it. You're right that it felt a bit daring back in the day. I was not very familiar with a lot of the subject matter then. I agree with @Reggie there are some soap opera elements in the later instalments but there's a lot more besides. 6y
