Yet another great one from Angie Thomas. i am not a YA fan, yet I look forward to her books. They pack such a punch. The whole time I am reading it, my eyes are open and I am absorbing it all like a sponge. The characters are feisty, strong and unrelenting. They are dedicated and have such a passion. It is not always easy to read, but somehow Thomas makes the pages fly by. I don't want to compare Bri with Starr, but they are similar as they are different. Read this, do it, and then read all of Thomas' other books when they come. I know I will be.
