Street Divas

By: De'nesha Diamond

Narrated by: Simi Howe, Shari Peele, Patricia Floyd, Karen Pittman, Kim Brockington, Jennifer Kidwell, Cara Patterson

The queen of the street lit genre, De’nesha Diamond pens tales about the toughest ride-or-die chicks ever to roam the streets of the Dirty South. In Street Divas, four powerful women vie for total control of the Memphis hood, and they aren’t about to let past loyalties get in their way. While Lucifer is hitting the streets to get her revenge for a deadly shooting, Essence is hitting the sheets - with her best friend’s man. And Yolanda knows her path to power lies with her baby’s hustler father, but Queen G Leshelle is dead set on keeping this game all to herself.

Street Divas was AWESOME!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes! The storyline of this book has the drama and intriguing plot that pulls the reader right in.

What did you like best about this story?

The ticking time bomb of the drama between Python and Fat Ace. The 2 brothers are arch enemies with a past that will hopefully bring the 2 of them together in a "happy" reunion. Their past is so very complex and someone knows what happend but "street-laws" says that no one snitches.

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The narration of the story allows you, the reader, to feel every emotion of the character. The narrators "define" each of the characters involvement in the upcoming gang war that is simmering just beyond "enemy territory." In a few words, each narrator "played their part very well!"

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The moment in the book that moved me was Christopher having to see his Dad kill his Mother. I hope that she is not really dead and that Christopher will soon be reunited with his family because Python is providing a environment that is conducive for healthy lifestyle. Someone has to be able to stop the "family cycle of gang involvement" although I am not too sure whether or not his Supercop grandfather is the household he needs to be reared in either.

Any additional comments?

This series is fast becoming one of my top series to read. De'Nesha Diamond has the right amount of drama and twist and turns interweaved into the plot to keep readers interested and wanting to read her novels for years to come.

Excellent Read

Very enjoyable and easy listen. Well developed characters but some of the traits assigned to them are more than a bit of a stretch. Prepare yourselves for an onslaught of anal sex, the author has facination with it though it adds nothing to the plot.

powerful!!!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

cutting out the baby all the events were graphic

Slow start

It was a struggle at first, because it was moving slow. The interesting parts took to long to venture in. The ending was good.
