This book is heavy, some of the early scenes are intense, yet captivating. The story took me on a rollercoaster of emotions, but I was buckled in for it. As usual, I fell in love with the characters, and they truly taught me a lot. This was the first book I've read by Angie Thomas, and I've already got the prequel, Concrete Rose, on my list of books to read next! She is a wonderful author, can't wait to read the rest of her repertoire.
