A Special Offer
Now that Thanksgiving is over and Qatar has been eliminated from the World Cup, you may be considering holiday gifts.
From now until Christmas, I’m offering a free, signed copy of my new book Little Brother: Love, Tragedy, and My Search For the Truth to anyone who buys any of my books, or purchases an annual subscription to my newsletter. Just email the receipt to ben.westhoff@gmail.com, and tell me what you want the inscription to be. You’ll also have to pay for shipping. (Supplies are limited.)
To clarify, to receive the free, signed copy of Little Brother, you can subscribe to this newsletter or buy any of my books, including Fentanyl, Inc., Original Gangstas, Dirty South, or Little Brother. Here are some updates on the books.
Fentanyl, Inc.: How Rogue Chemists Created the Deadliest Wave of the Opioid Epidemic
The ever-worsening fentanyl epidemic makes Fentanyl, Inc. more vital than ever. I’m speaking around the country about the topic, and am writing the screenplay for a feature film adaption. It’s taking longer than I thought, but hang in there! (Link to Buy)
Original Gangstas: Tupac, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Eazy-E, and the Birth of West Coast Rap
Original Gangstas just passed 40,000 domestic sales, and has sold around 50,000 worldwide. Editions in Russian, French, and Hungarian (above) came out recently. I still can’t believe what a crazy life Eazy-E lived. (Link to buy the English edition.)
Dirty South: Outkast, Lil Wayne, Soulja Boy, and the Southern Rappers Who Reinvented Hip-Hop
Dirty South doesn’t sell like my others, but don’t you love that cover? I still chuckle about the time Soulja Boy told me he carries a million dollars in cash when he travels. (Link to buy.)
Little Brother: Love, Tragedy, and My Search For the Truth
Though my hair was a little messed up, you can now see my Little Brother presentation from St. Paul on CSPAN. I’m so proud of this book, and glad that people are starting to take notice. (Link to buy.)
Here are some Goodreads reviews:
PS: If you’re in St. Louis, you can hear me speak about Little Brother on Tuesday in O’Fallon, Missouri.
PPS: Bella Thorne shouted out Little Brother on her Instagram. If you don’t know who she is, you’re in for a fun Google!
