Such a great writer, really powerful, thank you

Exquisitely narrated by Luis J. Rodriguez! Great book with vivid accounts of his life.

Great story and I would not have wanted to hear it from anyone else than the author himself.

This journey was incredible from a former gang member in Los Angeles. It provided a keen perspective for me because I grew up in Inglewood California where bloods and crips were at our families door step on a daily basis. It makes me wonder and empathize with the other brilliant minds out there right now; if they had the chance to express themselves like "chin" did with his story.

Good but the narration wasn't great. It really makes you think about the things that cause people to end up where they do in life.

Great book with an in depth view of why a young man would turn to the gang life. Eye opening and very easy read.
