Two The Hard Way by Travis Hunter RAW Rating: 5.0 (out of 5) After Kwame and Romeo’s mother abandoned them, they went to live with their grandmother who is affectionately called Nana. Romeo, the youngest of the two, idolized his older brother and when he went to prison for a crime he didn’t commit, Romeo’s world went to pieces. It was easy to get caught up in the streets, but Romeo focused on being the star quarterback at his high school, hanging out with his militant midget, best friend Amir, and Kwame’s pending release. When Kwame is released from prison, Romeo is happy to have his big brother back home with him. Even their mother starts coming around more often. As they begin to enjoy their lives back together again, their mother is savagely beaten. Not only do they find out the reason for their mother’s abandonment, they also find out who wants them all out of the picture. The remarkable characterization in TWO THE HARD WAY sets the tone in this explosive teen story. From the special bond Kwame and Romeo share, and the love they feel for Nana, to the hilarious “power to the people” Amir, each of these characters will find a place in your heart. The secondary characters add just a touch more spice to a realistic plot of love and survival. Just when I thought the story couldn’t get any better, Hunter takes it to another level. I sense a sequel!! Reviewed by Sharon Lewis, RAWSISTAZ.com © Copyright 2001-2011
