True True by Don P. Hooper

An amazing debut YA book. I have never wanted to throw a book more out of anger. The microaggressions that Gil and his fellow POC classmates endure at Agustin Prep made me so angry (which speaks volumes about the quality of the writing of the author). I wanted to slap the parents and Dean. Good thing they are only characters but what an amazing representation of those who speak these microaggressions on a daily basis. I really liked the characters Gil and his grandma. Gil for standing up for what he believed in and Grandma for showing him the right way to stand up. Just wow. I look forward to more YA from this author.
