James Johnson's The Perfect Plan and Unhappy AdmirationJames Johnson has done it again and created a mind- blowing sequel to his freshman novel, The Perfect Plan [ISBN: 0-9747603-0-7]. His sophomore novel, Unhappy Admiration [ISBN: 0-9747603-1-5] , hit the streets on October 14, 2005 in New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Connecticut and Maryland under an exclusive release program and sold out of its first printing of 10,000 units in a single three-day weekend!Both novels, The Perfect Plan and Unhappy Admiration, have received raving reviews from prominent players in the book world including the Chicago Sun times and the Illinois Chronicle, as well as thousands of fans nationwide. Here's a peek at what they've had to say.
"James Johnson's sophomore novel is worthy of recognition and is sure to be another bestseller on all accounts. His writing has reached new levels of intellect and imagery that other authors of this genre are severely lacking and will not soon compete with, to their own detriment. The signature fast pace is, as ever, enthralling and engrossing, leaving the reader disconcerted and longing for the next episode which is sure to be another literary blockbuster. Bravo does not begin to express the satisfaction derived from this read. So, until the next phase, Johnson has bravura of unsurpassed heights and promises to further solidify his standing as the reigning Master of urban fiction."
-Chicago Sun Times
"To say that Johnson has a fevered imagination is a huge understatement. To say that he possesses a skewed sense of humor doesn't begin to do him justice. But for all his excesses, Johnson is a wildly original writer with a pitch-perfect knack for capturing life in its purest form, raw and untamed.
Johnson writes with irreverence and wit. His characters say and do crazy things with sometimes tragic outcomes, but the author makes it all believable. The literary world appears to be asleep in regard to Johnson's agitated gift of imagery and earnest dedication to acknowledging urban truths in the rawest form. From all aspects of this reviewer for 11 years, Johnson will emerge as the front-runner in literary realism as this novel, as well as its predecessor, The Perfect Plan, gains momentum throughout the mass market. There is no mistaking his talent and ghetto-civilized charm, arousing admiration in us all."
