The 57 Bus: A True Story of Two Teenagers and the Crime That Changed Their Lives by Dashka Slater

emotional hopeful informative inspiring fast-paced

3.0

Interesting book, takes a vested interest in having the reader relate and sympathize with someone many people wouldn't usually bother with. Shows how the American justice system, even in cases where we identify with the victim, is incredibly and unfairly harsh. That being said it is very nice, like the author was worried that if they dug into the complexities of the story, the audience wouldn't be able to reach the correct emotional understanding of the story. Very fast and easy read.
