Hoodlum 2: The Good Son (A Hoodlum Novel) Paperback – July 18, 2017

Although there are minor errors, such as mixing up some of the character names and the formatting of the text, it was still such a great book! I’m not too fond of the ending, but I still enjoyed the story!

After much anticipation, Shai is back! There's a grand affair and everybody seems to be in attendance. Even baby sis Hope makes an appearance. But I do think her guest is up to something. Then there's long lost cousin Hammer who's just so 'shady'. The whole gang is here & a few new faces too. This is a closer look behind the scenes kind of & it has me itching for more. Shai is running things pretty ok & Tommy has his hands in some pies as well. I kept putting this down because I didn't wanna finish but I couldn't stop once I really got into it. You'll be thoroughly entertained!Edit after re-reading- Shai & Tommy might need to really share these responsibilities as the head. At least behind closed doors. I don't think Shai can handle it alone, he's not as seasoned as Tommy & still thinking with that little head. If it wasn't for Hammer he would be gone. And I'm still hoping to be able to trust Hammer cause he just popped up out the blue. Shai is definitely "The Good Son" and might need some training. Plus Honey is out of line too. Can't wait for the follow-up on this.

Gives you insight into Shai Clark, but I still dislike him. Heavy is the head that wears the crown. Then there seems to be tension between siblings. Not sure who Hope is running around with but he smells like trouble. Honey going to end up back on the stripper pole if she's doing what it appears that she is. All in all a great read. A lil peek at Animal is always a good thing but he's not the focus here. K'WAN never disappoints.

Great story love the pace. What is WACK IS THAT THIS IS COMING OUT NOW. so late after animal 2, 3, 4 and other books. The story is dope but moving across time and books have me kinda vexed. Not feeling that. And we have to wait to get caught up . love the story. Its dope.Timeline is wack

I was so glad when I heard K'wan was releasing Hoodlum 2. Hoodlum was one of my favorites by K'wan and this second installment definitely didn't disappoint. I love how we got a chance to read about Tech again and even gave us some background of why Animal don't like the Clarks. I am interested in learning more about Hope though and where this situation with this Snake dude going to go. Hopefully in part 3, we will get some more info on that. I really enjoyed the book, only reason I gave it 4 stars is because of some of the errors with the spellings and there was one part where Shai was supposed to be talking to Swann, but then the next sentace said he was talking to Tech.

They say when you read a book, by the middle you’ll already know what’s going to happen. I’ve never gotten that feeling after reading one of K’Wan’s books. Most often than not, I’m pissed because of the cliffhanger. Lol. So I’ve learned to wait to a whole series is out before I read his work. I’m to inpatient to wait.

What an immense story that plays like a Hollywood gangster movie. I love the characters of this book and how every little detail is cohesive and furthers this incredible story. This is a five star book that paints a picasso of gangster imagery.

This book had more twists and turns then loops 12(Texas). First things first, I know that Swann, Tech, Priest and baby Doc are dead from previous books. This is the book that should have came out after Hoodlum. I sure hope you finish this book. Another thing, what happened to Animal next book about Red Sonya and Animal's children? Please come on with the come on and quit holding out on us. I love your work and how you tell a story. Come on with it dude. I love you Kwan.
