It took me a long time to get to this book, but I'm so glad I finally did. This is such a powerful book, with a lot of great, diverse representation. It's not an easy read, especially since this was published three years ago and so many of the issues are still prevalent. Anger Is a Gift is definitely a must-read for anyone who likes activist fiction in YA, especially activist fiction that feels incredibly realistic.
