This book has great characters you can love. Despite the main character being a teen and struggling with how she is viewed by the outside world, the book itself still manages to handle the very important and sadly all too frequent topic of police shootings with great maturity. This novel is a clear young adult winner.
This is such a descriptive and real book. It put us right there in the inner city and in the minds of the main characters. It gave us a lot to discuss and think about.
