This book is so powerful and so important.

I really loved Dear Martin (book 1) and Justyce's story, but Quan's story is much more common. This story is difficult and heartbreaking, and a reminder that the systems that run our society must be dismantled to create lasting change.

The narrator of the audiobook is excellent, and I highly recommend that format (for both books 1 and 2) if they are available to you.

I really loved Justyce from the first book and was thrilled to see him in this book as well, especially in the capacity in which he was in this!

I'm surprised I didn't cry. This is really good, please read it if you have read Dear Martin.  And read the stuff afterwards that explains the creative liberties.
