Tentative sip

"This is not really a review. I've read only two chapters. Normally I don't care much for urban gritty lit, but this actually pretty good. It rolls along from the "mouth" of a 15-year-old, but it feels like the author is older and has seen some action. There is a thread of subtle humor that adds a taste of time in the oaken barrel. The writing is good. Language hardward just fine ... that means I am not put off by mistakes of spelling or punctuation. It remains mostly invisible: a good thing. I think I will stick with this and read for enjoyment, judgment (yeah, I'm judgmental), and, since I am intrigued with the delightful, if not a tiny bit cliche, foreshadowing. I expect to be pleased. I will write another "review" when I have more impressions. i hope this comment is of some help."
