All American Boys by Jason Reynolds, Brendan Kiely
5.0
emotional inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book was perfect. It was the perfect mix of self reflection, societal reflection, anguish, and perspective. In no surprising turn of events, several districts (cough Florida cough cough) have tried or been successful at challenging and banning this book despite its objectively stellar writing, and critical content.
