I have read a lot of books— some good and some bad. I enjoy books that stay focused because it keeps my interests. This brings me to my review of Derelict written by 50 Cent and Relentless Aaron. I was satisfied with the first two books in the G-Unit Series for the year 2007, but this one left me blank.
Derelict is about a convict named Jamel who went to jail for writing faulty checks. While serving his time, he slowly starts to make moves on a psychologist he thinks is sexy in the beginning, but he shows in the end how he truly felt about her, especially with the stories that he shares with his jail mates Box, Roy, and Twan.
Jamel talks about his two girlfriends Deadra and JoJo and his two kids throughout the story. He has a few pen pals that are female convicts and of course Dr. Kay the psychologist—he is a true pimp with nothing at all.
Dr. Kay falls for Jamel hard and they have relations nearing the end of the book. When Jamel finally gets out of jail, his friend Troy picks him up and they stop at a motel. Jamel supposedly puts his pimp down to scare Dr. Kay off, but his actions only turn her on and there is no escaping her clutches.
Jamel wants to surprise his women so he and Troy sit in a truck and wait for the women to get home. While waiting, Troy tells Jamel to feel under the seat. To Jamel’s discomfort he feels a M-16 assault rifle which freaks him out because he does not want to do another bid, but Troy is on a campaign to kill Mac a famous rapper who was responsible for putting Troy on life support six years earlier.
I am truly hoping that there is a part two to this book because I was left in a total daze with too many questions about what the hell is happening. What kept me reading the book was that I was expecting him to get out of jail and take revenge on someone. What happened to the probation officer that was supposed to be watching Jamel’s every move? Who was the mysterious person that had and agenda of his own and planned to take Jamel down at any price? None of this happened!!! Jamel stayed in jail most of the time which began to get boring, and it was the last 5 or 6 pages that the caged bird was free. He got out of jail only to dump Dr. Kay and sit in a truck.
The back of the book was much more interesting then the content. My view would totally change if there is a part two to this book. Hopefully this is what 50 Cent and Relentless Aaron have in mind.
