 Why have I not read this book yet? I remember wanting to read it when it came out but I didn't do much reading at the time. Now I am annoyed at myself for not reading it sooner. This book is important. It made me cry. I loved the characters. Beautiful, heartbreaking, and real. A good reminder to keep fighting for change, continue screaming against injustice, and not settle for the bare minimum. Say their names because they deserved better.
