Capone 1 - ✨✨✨✨

Capone 2 - ✨✨✨✨✨

Capone 3 - ✨✨✨✨

Capone is definitely NOT the “chill twin” he’s claimed to be😂. I’m not sure who lied to this man but I will say that after reading Cappadonna he is a little calmer but his ass ain’t chill. I mean, where do I start? How he was about his woman? The way he handled each individual that he had to get rid of? The way he’d risk his health to make sure the job was done? Granted that last one was risky, you couldn’t tell him shit cause he’s a man that’s gone do what he gotta do.

After finishing this series I have to say that outside of what he does. It really felt like I was reading about a man wanting love in the midst of the chaos in his world. It never seemed like anything was too much for him and he had everything except someone he could love & would love him back.

He’s a protector and puts his family above all. One of the things I truly loved was his family. As long as you didn’t do nothing that forced them to look at you sideways, they showed you nothing but love. ALL of them knowing how to protect themselves is

I AM TRYING NOT TO SPOIL THE BOOK BUT …

Somebody should’ve beat Ella’s ass. I don’t care. I feel like Capone choice to stay out of it cause it was women’s business wasn’t right as a brother & could’ve saved him a lot of the headache that is Ella. (They talk more about that in Capp’s book)

Tasha’s ass is not a horrible mother but person. I didn’t see it coming but Capone got her good.

Jaiden did what Jaiden needed to do & I’m glad he got his closure.

Naheim🙄😒👊🏾

Capri? She’s not innocent. Outside of that you’ll get to know her more in Cappadonna’s series. I’m reading her series now & all I can say is I pray she meets a man that values her.

Timmy got what he deserved. I blame his mother.

If I keep talking it’s gone say my post too long🫠.

PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF🫂.

PEACE.PEACE.✨

... Read moreOkay, so after pouring my heart out about Capone, I just had to share a little more about my journey through Jahquel J.'s incredible The Del Gato Series. Seriously, if you're looking for a world to get lost in, this is it! When you search for 'gatoseries', you're stepping into a saga of complex characters, undeniable loyalty, and drama that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Let's talk about Capone again, but from a slightly different angle – his 'commands'. The original review mentioned how he's far from 'chill' and I couldn't agree more. But it's more than just his actions; his very presence and his intense character dialogue truly command attention. He's a man of few words, but when he speaks, you listen. Whether he's laying down the law for his family or confronting an adversary, his words carry weight. It's fascinating how Jahquel J. crafts these moments, showcasing Capone's unwavering belief in loyalty and his protective instincts. You see how he navigates these intricate situations, always with a clear objective, even if it means consequences for others. His 'text commands' – if we interpret that as his directives or influence – are less about actual texts and more about the powerful, unyielding way he shapes his world and those around him. For anyone new to The Del Gato Series, you're in for a treat. It’s not just a standalone story; it’s a beautifully interwoven tapestry of lives, love, and the harsh realities of their world. After Capone, diving into Cappadonna's book really gives you another perspective, and then Capri's series, which I’m currently devouring, rounds out so much. Each book builds on the last, exploring the deep-seated family bonds and how each character grapples with their past and future. You'll find yourself rooting for them, questioning them, and completely engrossed in their journeys. Characters like Erin, whom you might encounter with Capone, play crucial roles in this intricate dance of power and passion. I've found myself completely captivated by Jahquel J.'s ability to create such vivid worlds and characters. The level of detail, especially in the emotional landscapes and the intense character dialogue, is just *chef's kiss*. If you're on the hunt for a series that combines gritty realism with compelling storytelling and deep family loyalty, then look no further than The Del Gato Series. Trust me, you'll want to clear your schedule for this one! What are your favorite books in the series? I’d love to hear your thoughts on who truly commands the narrative!
