A Skillfully Written, Fun College Tale!

Tracy Grant's HELLIFIED is a fabulous coming of age piece. There's enough going on with DJ Troy, Ill Will, the Black Student Union and their freshman adventures to keep you captivated. The two semester story and fast pace make this a great read. The DC backdrop with students partying and hitting the books, along with the frat brother scenes, are wonderful. Tracy Grant gives us a look at young black men who are far from stereotypical. Put this author up there with "The Best Man" and "The Brothers," this would make a great movie. I can't wait for the next book.

This is a fabulous, gripping novel.

Hellified is a wild ride just as the title implies, exposing us to the world of some wacky college freshmen. The story is wonderful in that it puts you right on campus with the three main characters, DJ Troy, Randy and Ill Will. Many of their exploits are typical of 18 year-olds, but the story will have you cracking up. It is well-written with a wonderful blend of the '80s, Hip Hop music and Washington D.C. for a backdrop. Kudos to Tracy Grant for a great debut. I'm looking forward to the next one!

Enjoy the ride!

This is an EXCELLENT read from begining to end. I dare you to read it and not think about that first time your heart was broken in college or wondering if he or she could be the one for you.Read it and enjoy the HELLIFIED ride.

Enjoyable from back to front!

"Hellified" makes you reminisce your school days, from music to clothes to girls or guys. It also helps you realize that even though education is important, you can also have fun. It was an enjoyable book to read from beginning to end.
