This was a good and important book, for many reasons. The first book in this series "The Hate U Give" I really enjoyed, this one not as much. I think this book talked (for me) too much about being a "real man", which I thought was kinda boring and annoying. The topics of this book however was really good and Thomas had some great discussions throughout the book.
Graphic: Gun violence, Death, and Grief
Moderate: Pregnancy and Abandonment
