has anyone read this book? its real good. its about an 80's gang called the scorpions (its a fake story) and a kids family is messed up by the oldest son randy because he is the leader of the scorpions, and now he is in jail for being acused of a murder. now the middle child jamal has to decide to join the scorpions to make enough money to bail randy out of jail (must sell drugs and be leader) or find a less dangerous way to make the cash but it'll take years, jamal and his family are poor, he has another sibling besides randy, he has a big mouth little sister named sassy, and his mama, no dad. if you havent read it yet, you should, its a real good book.
