Decelerate Blue by Adam Rapp

4.0

Future-dystopian world where even speech is regulated. Girl decides to break out. Discovers underground resistance. Things get complicated.

The language here really stood out to me. Rapp is a thoughtful, brainy writer.

Gorgeous illustration work by [a: Mike Cavallaro|1282328|Mike Cavallaro|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]. I grabbed one of the panels from page 137 for #projectraintattoo. Especially appreciate the lack of umbrellas. :)

More accessible than Rapps other GN.
Black and white illustrations (although someone missed an opportunity by not making it Blue and White).

Booktalked this at four area high schools in September 2017.
