Writer's Digest Judge's Review of The Street Life Series

One of the most rewarding aspects of being a murder mystery and urban fiction author is reading feedback about your work.  Last week, I received a book review from a book awards competition; and I just couldn't resist posting it on Vox.com.  The review reads as follows:

"The Street Life Series: Is It Suicide or Murder? is a very strong debut novel in the urban fiction genre.  The plot was engaging, and the pacing was well suited to a novel of this type.  The dialogue came off as very convincing, and did a good job propelling the story.  The author (Kevin M. Weeks) has a very accessible prose style, which makes the book just plain fun to read.  Weeks successfully conveys a sense of realism necessary for a convincing genre novel, through both dialogue and narrative.  He excels at combining dialogue and descriptive passages, and keeps the story moving along nicely.  The novel will be enjoyable to a wide audience."   -- Judge, Writer's Digest 15th Annual Self-Published Book Awards.
