Ain't got nothin', won't be nothin'. That's the motto that most of the boys from the east side of Brooklyn went by. Some of them were thieves, drug dealers, murderers, or even rapists. They were an array of criminals, but all for one reason - to get by. Then there were the others, the ones who were athletes or writers or engineers, talented people who actually had a ticket out of the hood. Then there were people in the middle who got along with everybody but never really chose one side. People like Max. When you float along in the river that is the ghetto, you may think you're unbothered, but there is always something waiting. There will always be a stick in the water, and for Max, it all came at the wrong time. Most of his friends were on the criminal side, but he was just about to get his one-way departure ticket before things came crashing down. There were only two possibilities: either he got stuck in the hood forever, or he lost his life. After living here for so long, you realize that those two are one and the same.

The not-so-safe haven of Chattanooga, Tennessee has always been normal territory for Geneva. But as an unproductive, boring year for her comes to an end, everything she believes in is shattered to the point that she can't even be sure that her first name is real. Life swings her from one side to the next, and suddenly she is swung into the same place as five other innocent human beings. Their participation in what seems to be a sick game begins once December arrives, but behind the scenes, things have been changing all along. How long will it take for them to discover who they should point fingers at? Who will find out first, and will he help the others or save himself? Before salvation, though, you must acknowledge that you need to be saved. In these youths' case, it's almost too late for epiphanies. (Sequel, Blue Pencil Dolls, is on my page.)

Aubrey is magnificent. Fantastic. Exemplary. But he’s also stupid; because you just have to be stupid to burn down your million-dollar mansion all because of a cigarette. Now that his mansion and everything inside it - including the memorabilia from his high school years and family portraits with fake, practiced smiles - are gone, his uncle is willing to take Aubrey in. Uncle Drake’s mansion is even more lavish than Aubrey’s, but there are side effects: a crazy old man named Jeffie with a crazy story to tell, an up-to-no-good young man named Cyrus, and two gorgeous girls who are each granted the disadvantage of being loved by the magnificent, stupid Aubrey. Things may seem light at first - mysterious, but light. But what happens when Aubrey finds out that his life, and the lives of others, are at stake? Will anyone make it out alive? He wants to rescue everyone, but there’s only so much the man of the year can do.

Life is such a thrill when you don't know what's next. That's exactly what Florence Morrison's life was like: she never knew what would come next. Would her parents send her away to boarding school? Would her friends' crazy plan work? But most of all, what would happen if it did? She was the type who feared the outcome of everything, so she avoided these questions. But sooner or later, she had to face up to her life, and as moments passed by, there was no escape. No escape from her enemies, herself, the new boy in her life (who she doesn't know if he's her enemy or her friend), or her life. The only escape is death, which is bound to happen soon in this dog-eat-dog world.
