It is well known that as time passes friends may outgrow each other and for Malik Jones this is definitely the case. Fresh out of the pen after a ten year bid, Malik braces himself for a return to the life he left behind. Now a dedicated Muslim, Malik is aiming to stay on the straight and narrow, but as the saying goes, you can't teach an old dog new tricks and it only a matter of time and circumstance before Malik finds himself surrounded by his old Manz and Em and all the drama they bring. A great insight into the evils and struggles faced by ex-cons trying their best to reenter society on a positive note, you will not only read about the trials they face, you will touch, taste and feel their pains, with My Manz and Em.


1. What did you like best about this book?
I liked how the author portrayed the main chracte, Malik, and Ex-con in a personable light. He wasn't extra hard o soft. He was real.

2. What did you dislike about this book?
I feel that the amount of slang used in this book both helped and distracted the reader.

3. How can the author improve this book?
There are some editing issues that need to be addressed, but other than that this book is fine the way it is.
