Ain't Burned All the Bright by Jason Reynolds

5.0

I love that Jason Reynolds and Jason Griffin wrote a book about their experiences during this crazy two years. Breathe in. 

The discussion about how they wrote the book was interesting. How words and stories are mailable. They can take on a myriad of meanings depending what came before or what come after.
