Wow. I loved this book. It’s the conversation and the perspectives every person needs to hear. The characters are complex and thoughtful. Just well done.

Is this a perfect book? No. Is it an important book that tackles current issues around racial justice? Yes. Does it get even my most reluctant readers invested and turning pages? Without fail.
