Publisher's summary

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.

Great

This is just as great as the the first book!! I loved it. Great from beginning to end. I CAN NOT wait to hear what happens next! I love the addition of the multiple narrators.

Good Read

If you could sum up Street Divas in three words, what would they be?

I can t wait until the next book comes out

What was one of the most memorable moments of Street Divas?

the End I was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Mad, like are you serious you just going to leave me hanging like this until next time..

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.

The drama never stopped!

Would you consider the audio edition of Street Divas to be better than the print version?

I like the audio edition of Street Divas. It moved fast and was well paced. If reading the print, it is possible to sit the book down and not read in between intervals.

What did you like best about this story?

I like how realistic Tashara's response was portrayed after her victimization.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

There were so many well spoken narrators!

If you could rename Street Divas, what would you call it?

I think Street Divas is the appropriate name for this book.......

Any additional comments?

The author does a great job with these street fiction books, and it is nice to see her write so well as a romance noveistl under her real name. Google this author!!

IGNORANT!

What disappointed you about Street Divas?

I felt it was an ignorant piece of work that just detailed ultimate exaggeration of street violence and bad language!

Would you ever listen to anything by De'nesha Diamond again?

Never!

How could the performance have been better?

Cannot be saved!

What character would you cut from Street Divas?

The whole work.

True Street Divas

What made the experience of listening to Street Divas the most enjoyable?

Love this author and this story. First book had me on the edge of my seat and this one did too. Looking forward to what happen next.

Loved it!

Would you consider the audio edition of Street Divas to be better than the print version?

The audio version is the best, you get to feel the emotions of the characters. The book leaves you in suspense and on the edge of your seat. I can't wait to hear more.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

I liked the way the narrator knew how to sound like different people when multiple.characters are talking.

Wow, these are some ruthless chicks!

This story gives you a rough and raw tale of women who choose to get in the gang life and try to dominate as strongly as the men. It will make you smile, make you feel sad, and mad throughout this book. Very good story and narrated by my fave,Honey Jones. She really gets into the characters and really shows off with the character Mama Peaches.

A Good Listen

If you could sum up Street Divas in three words, what would they be?

Captivating, Mysterious, Cliffhanger

What was one of the most memorable moments of Street Divas?

At the end when Python suspects Mason to be his brother due to the birth mark on his neck that they both share.

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I love all of their voices, it add's a voice to the face created in the listener's mind.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes, I didn't want to stop listening

Any additional comments?

I can't wait to hear the follow up to this story.
