Sequel to Push
This was a tough read. It's about the son of Precious from Push and starts out when he is 9yo. His mother dies and he is put into foster homes and boarding schools, basically going under the radar at times and experiencing great trauma as well as causing trauma to others. It's a really dark, difficult read and was even more disturbing than Push.
Definitely check for content warnings on this one. I had to put it down so many times.
