Also he should have not entered that gang at such a young age. Yummy never had a good life but he was the one who made his choices. His parents were both in jail and they never wanted yummy. yummy never felt any love by any one.

He was sent to live with his grandma and about 17 other grandkids. He got tired of being small so he joined a gang called The Black Disciples. He wants to impress Monster, the leader of the gang, so he can be promoted to a deputy. To prove how "bad" he was, he went to the streets to face one of his gang rivals. He tried to shoot them but he couldn't shoot straight. Instead he missed one of his rivals and instead shot a girl he went to school with, Shavon. The gang was hiding Yummy for weeks but eventually turned on him and killed him so they wouldn't have to deal with the problem.

Yummy. He has shot a girl on accident and he is on the run. In the beginning of the book, the narrator is telling about his past and his current homelife. After that it picks up where the narrator left off in the beginning, when Yummy kills Shavon Dean. In the end his so-called family, the Black Disciples, shoot him because it was way too hard to hide him because he was such a big story on the news and the cops were constently on the hunt for this young killer. I liked this book but it wasn't reallymuch of a story to me, I mean, it told about his past most of the time but the actual STORY was about 11% of the whole entire book.

It was a very good, yet sad story, about a little boy named Yummy. Yummy is an 11-year-old boy who grew up in a bad neighborhood with parents that did nothing good for him. He gets involved with the Black Disciples gang and accidentally shoots and kills an innocent 14-year-old girl named Shavon. This starts a massive man-hunt (or "boy-hunt") for this scared little boy and you see him show his age a little bit more. By the end he ends up deciding to stop hiding and he calls his granny to come pick him up but before she is able to get there, two guys come pick him up to supposedly help him hide but really betray him in an alley and he is found dead. At Yummy's funeral, people leave him candy and the narrator, Roger, wonders what happens to him when he dies. This book really made me feel sympathetic towards Yummy because it wasn't his fault he was so awful. He was only a kid, and he got caught up in this gang and all his life was betrayed and taken advantage of. I really enjoyed this book.Emily Brookenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3041873984662198741.post-44785917555536834592013-01-07T08:22:59.000-05:002013-01-07T08:22:59.000-05:00I have just finished the book Yummy and it’s a rea...I have just finished the book Yummy and it’s a really good book.
