Karma's a Bitch

by J. Gail

What goes around, comes around.

Tony Jackson has to learn this lesson the hard way. Labeled the "asshole of West Philly," Tony holds no shame in having other women in his girlfriend Quanisha's bed. There is little remorse after he knocks off a convenience store and beats the cashier down with a gun. He'll rob from his girl, his friends, people he doesn't know and ya mama. He doesn't care who he hurts.

The question is when will Tony figure out that Karma's a Bitch? Maybe when he starts getting his Karma instantly and mercilessly he'll get the hint.

Will a heavy dose of 'Instant Karma' show him that not contributing to society in any positive way is guaranteed to get him a one way ticket to no where? Or will he just keep digging himself deeper in a hole that could end up being his final resting place...

This book will give you a chuckle, a laugh -- or at the very least a smile. But hey, don't laugh too hard... Karma is one persistent bitch that doesn't rest.

Good read

The main characters needs a good slap.

But have a read and you will see, WHY!

However we All know or heard of someone like him.

This book was awesome. I read it and believe many need to read this book, the message is awesome and the author is phenomenal in her writing. I could see the characters and places that she wrote about. I have read many books and I can honestly say this book is great!! Tony is someone many of us have met in life or you may see yourself in the book. At the end life is about decisions and it's up to you to know what really matters. Thank you J. Gail. I suggested this book to a young man who needed to see himself in a book and make a difference in his life.

I loved this book. That title is soo true. Tony wanted to be a gangster and have all the women until he met a fatal attraction chick. Crazy as all outdoors. His girlfriend, Quanisha, ghetto as all outdoors is time enough for him. He has to lose it, before he can get it back.

I thought this was a good book. Not your typical gangster, ghetto girl book. Things were happening to Tony and he could not understand why. Excellent read!!

This book was actually a very entertaining read! I am giving it 3.5 Stars. Tony was the dude that you loved to hate. He was selfish and didn't give a damn about anyone but himself. He REALLY pissed me off many times while reading this story! The book had a great message and I loved the ending. Great job J. Gail!

I thought it was going to be a bad read but was pretty good.

This book seemed like it was all over the place. It was not a page-turner for me and while I understood the whole karma thing, the way it was written seemed more like bad luck than anything else.

This book is all about karma. In the end Tony figures out that in order to have good things happen he has to give up his evil ways. What a bunch of messed up people!

It was a good read with a lot of ups and downs. There were a lot of characters whiched caused too much jumping back and forth for me. I really couldnt keep up.
