This book made me feel everything. It made me mad, made me laugh and cry and all out sob. 

It was graphic but damn it needed to be. It needed to paint the picture so people could see the the world Black people have to navigate. 

The characters were beautiful, the development was strong and well paced. I loved every second of this story. The character’s growth, the community support, the familial bonds, all 10/10.
