I actually read this book awhile ago!! I thought it was very interesting and it had a good plot. I liked it overall, however, I believe that the title of the book is misleading being that it had little to do with giving buck fifty's...I would like to read the author's other books. So, Saga wherever you are I need for you to get back to it!! LOL

4 of 5 stars

bookshelves: sex, player, molestation, lies, lesbians, jail, insest, golddigging, ghetto, drugs, mooched-by-a-bookmooch-member

Read in March, 2009

Jasmine is a crazy white chick, that wanted to be down so bad with the black chicks, drug dealers, gold diggers, and everything else. Jas life was messed up from the begining, all the way to the end. The book was a quick easy read, kept my attention, but the ending.... you judge for yourself.

Aint worth a buck fifty June 22, 2008

With a title like Buck Fifty & what it stands for this book shoud be Fire but it is not.Dont get it twisted,this book did have it's momemts but for the most part it was a luke warm weak read.Very poor character developement & a weak plot to go with it.A horny oversexed white girl from Connecticut who's into ballers & hustlers flies out to the west coast to get breast & boody implants so she can compete with all the other girls in the hood.When she comes back to the east coast she gets into all kinds of dirt causing her to do a short prison bid.Upon her release from prison she goes right back to running the streets with her girls trying to get that paper.She ups her street game by kidnapping a black baby that she claims as her's,flies back out to the west coast where she pays for the kidnapping by meeting her maker.Dont be fooled by the title & it's meaning because this book does'nt live up to it.The author only gives you about 2 razor slashings.As an avid fan of street literature I have read better & I have read worst.If your looking for a quick read while passing the time away at home or at the airport then pick up this book.But if your looking for a book with more depth and more substance this is not the one,dont waste your time.Hopefully the author will do a better job with Parole Violators.Yo i'm out until my next book review...THE BROOKLYN BOOKWORM
