I greatly enjoyed this book. It’s quick and short, read it during a road trip and now am going to buy it to read it again. I loved the characters and their relationship. Greatly recommend, fun ending twist.

When I say that this is my favourite book. I mean it. I recommend is book to anyone no matter if they read or not. Yes it does deal with dark topics like gang violence and murder but it also has light topics like brotherly love and loyalty to friends. I have become attached to these characters and really think that everyone should read this at least once in their life.
