One of my favorite books I have read in a while. As a warning, there are drugs, violence, race issues, cussing, and more in this book. But it's truly written in a language that is fun to read, and with a story that is hard to put down. I can't wait until the movie is made!'
I think this book makes me want to read more books written about/for/by minorities. I will try to fit that into my yearly challenge of 25 books!
On to the next!
