Concrete Rose by Angie Thomas

4.0

Angie Thomas can do no wrong! The humor in this book is unmatched! She really knows how to write a great coming-of-age story, and the transition to The Hate U Give in the epilogue is flawless. My only qualm was all the endless baby/pregnancy talk, which I'm not a fan of in ANY book so that's just a me thing. I just wish it focused more on all the other things Mav was going through aside from finding out he became a father at 17. But I understand why that was the main premise. That's the way it is realistically. Again, just a me thing. I still really enjoyed reading this prequel!
