This is a good book- I learned some things about the gang life and the gang he was in. I read this awhile ago so I can't remember everything but I did like his message. He was a lot like Tookie Williams in that he didn't glorify the gang life and killing.
The only thing I remember not really liking is some of the terminolgy he used. For some reason these gangsters seem to think it's okay to use military terms and it's just not. Don't call someone in your gang a five star general please. He's a gangster. Not a general. That was tough to swallow but if you can overlook that it's a good book.
