Summary: Excellent reading---get this book now!!
Review: Wow!! I really enjoyed the authors first book but this book was definitely on another level. I read it in one weekend. The characters were fresh and funny. I laughed out loud a lot. I felt like I went to college with some of the characters. This book will leave you wanting for more. I was sad when it ended. I want to know what happens next. Also, all I can say about the character, Ibn, is that he is "off the hook"!! Totally crazy! It's not possible to dislike him-------for long....

Summary: 4 Guys and Trouble is FANTASTIC!!!
Review: Marcus Major outdid himself when he wrote 4 Guys and Trouble because this book is FANTASTIC! The bond of friendship between the four frat brothers (Mike, Ibn, Colin, and Dexter) is humorous and genuine and you could easily recognize the love these individuals had for Bunches/Erika in his words. The characters and the situations they found themselves involved with were funny and interesting and I'm quite certain many readers could identify themselves in someone like I did. I had a flashback from my past in the character of Colin in his relationship with Stacy, his demanding and domineering girlfriend of six years, but God bless the brotha because he got his rewards in the end! If you enjoyed Good Peoples and Amir and Kenya (Marcus Major's short story contribution to the anthology Got To Be Real), you will not be disappointed with 4 Guys and Trouble! This book is by far the author's best to date and I can't wait to see what Marcus has in store for us in his next book!

Summary: Make Some New Friends
Review: I bought "4 Guys and Trouble" because I enjoyed "Good Peoples" so much. Mr. Major has the ability to to make his charactors so come to life, and touch your heart. This is the story of four men who have been very close friends since college, and the young woman they collectively adopted as a sister when her brother(their friend) died. The four friends are now successful professionals, and their young sister is a medical student. The reader joins them in their everyday life, and becomes part of the group. We share their joys and sorrows, and really start to care about them. We watch Erika(aka"Bunches") come to terms with her love for one of these men, and her relationship with all of them. The dialogue is witty, and the story fast moving. I am touched by the true devotion these men have for each other. Even when angry at one another, their friendship pulls them through. this is a story about people, and relationships.There aren't many stories told more from the male perspective. This is a book that will appeal to anyone who enjoys reading about contemporary love and relaionships. I am neither young, nor African American, but I do enjoy a good story.By the end of the book, I cared about all these people like they were friends I'd known for years. When I closed the book, I missed them all. This is a wonderful story by a very talented writer....I strongly recommend this book!

Summary: Funny, Funny, Funny
Review: I've always enjoyed reading about male friendships and this book was very funny and at times thought provoking. We have Dexter-trying to do the right thing but not exactly enjoying it; Ibn-the classic fine brotha with his demented views of women; Mike-the good guy until......; Colin-the doormat (I found myself praying that he would see the light); and finally Bunches-who taught the guys a few things about the opposite sex. This book will make you laugh at some of their shenanigans. I had a hard time putting it down to do the necessary things in life. I had to know how it ended. However, I did find myself wondering about Mrs. Truitt because there was no mention of her after her departure. Although I found it to be a funny and appealing book, it did enlightened me to some of the thoughts, hopes and dreams that men have. Get this for a quick and lighthearted read! Oh-Tiffany, way to go, LOL!

Summary: EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT!
Review: I could hardly wait until this book came out after reading "Good Peoples" and "Got To Be Real". I can truly say that it was well worth the wait. Marcus Major is an excellent writer and he makes you feel as though you are a part of the book. I didn't want the book to end. I'm already looking forward to reading his next book. Marcus Major is a superb writer and I do hope he keeps producing these great books.

Summary: This book touched all my emotions! Excellent!
Review: After reading "Got to be real" I instantly became a Marcus Major fan. I immediately went out to purchase "Good Peoples". I marked off the days on the calendar waiting for the release of "4 Guys and Trouble". Marcus did not disappoint me. The book was excellent! This author truly made each character come to life. There were moments when I actually laughed to the point I could not breathe. This is a book you cannot put down . . . don't pass it up.

Summary: You have to read this!
Review: I had been waiting on baited breath for this book to come out as soon as I received and alert that Mr. Major had a new book coming out. I pre-ordered my copy and when I got I just COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN! It was so hilarious and I just loved the dialogue. I won't repeat the whole story line, but let me tell you this book was worth every penny. Watching the guys intereact with each other, Ibn and his womanizing ways, Colin and his low self-esteem, Dexter and his issues regarding his impending fatherhood, it had me laughing ot loud and thinking about the things that men go through. A great fast read, can't wait for whatever is in store next!

Summary: Thoroughly Entertaining!!
Review: I bought this book on a whim because of the title. I can say I am happy that I did. This book is thouroughly entertaining. Marcus Major has earned a new fan. I like how the author detailed the connection of the four guys (Ibn, Colin, Michael, and Dexter) to Bunches (aka Erika). The characters are all so real, especially in their relationships. I like the boldness of the way the guys interacted with each other, it is a no holds barred look at the brotherhood of men. I got so wrapped up in the stories, at times I found myself wanting to talk to some of the characters. You Gotta Love.
