I stayed up late last nite finishing "Ice Cream for Freaks" and it turned out to be a surprisingly good read! De Jon did a nice job on his first novel. The first 3 or 4 chapters started out kind of slow for me, but then things really picked up. Nathaniel a.k.a. "Ice" is a young brotha in NYC who loves to get that "paper" only problem is he'll take yours before earning his own. As the book opens Ice robs Supreme for his bling, and Supreme then sends his 2 hitmen on a mission to find out who jacked him. It turns out Supreme knows a chick, who knows a girl that braids Ice's hair and everything goes crazy from there! Ice eventualy ends up in jail and his manhood is put to the test.This hot novel is full of revenge, murder, drugs, money, sex and drama! The ending of this novel is unbelievable! So if that's the kinda stuff you like reading about, this is the flavor ice cream for you.

This book was so good, better than Dutch and Dutch II. I read it in a day and a half - at work, at the hair dresser, sitting in traffic, at the gym, I could not put this book down. If you like ghetto violence, lots of drama, and all kinds of sex - get this book. I can't wait for the sequel.
