Brother
by David Chariandy
Some quick thoughts b/c I actually really liked this book! I wasn’t sure what to expect because I was reading it for my English class where I didn’t finish the last book, but this story is one you can devour in only a few sittings. The themes in this book reminded me a lot of others I have read which hit me hard, both The Outsiders and The Hate U Give. (Friendship, family, music, race, police brutality, violence) The way the narrative jumps from present to past chapters really makes for a unique experience and I want to go back and reread parts, now knowing what I do about the ending. It was short, but no less impactful. I definitely think more people should give Brother a read.
