Concrete Rose by Angie Thomas

4.0

I have to be honest, Concrete Rose isn’t a bad book, however, there’s no actual plot. It’s literally just Maverick’s teenage life, discovering the pregnancies and dealing with gang life. It’s fun and an easy read and quite sweet but it didn’t leave me feeling empowered like THUG or On the Come Up. I’m gonna be controversial and say the publisher requested this book as they knew it’d sell well and Angie wrote it.
