From Boys to Men

I loved this story, I was so happy to read a story that was as true to the game as possible that I did not know what to do! I read this story with in 5 hours. Dayvon & Ty who would have thought things would have turned out like this. This story kept you glued from the start. I am so happy I took the advice of Ms. Crystal & Ms. Toni and read this book. After reading so many fake street stories this was just what i needed to put me back in a reading mood. Keep up the Good Work Mr. Long! And thanks for a story that was well worth the read.

This book has so many twist and turns it will kepp you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. It's gives a true meaning to the term survival of the fittest. If you don't have this book in your collection, you don't have a collection at all.

A Page Turner!!!

A Thug's Life was one hell of an entertaining, fast-paced, gangster ride. Thomas delivered a highly charged tale that really makes you ask is life on that side of the tracks really worth it. The twists and turns.. the betrayal of friendship... Off the hook... I really couldn't stop reading the book. Thomas Long.. you came correct!....Dwayne S. Joseph author of The Womanizers
