As Brave as You by Jason Reynolds
4.0

Two brothers from Brooklyn spend the summer in Virginia with their grandparents. The characters in this novel are so deep and well developed. I loved Genie's curious mind--I think he'll make an excellent librarian one day, always researching. This is the story of family and the heartache that often accompanies those we love most.
