Great read!
Published by Anne-Marie Griffin Wilson , 3 years ago
I read this book front to back in one sitting! I highly recommend it to any reader. These character might be fictional, but they reflect a real struggle than many people face. We have a long way to go to improve our country- education and insight like this is our first step.
Powerful Read

Nic Stone does a fantastic job in expressing the struggles and triumphs a teen/young man experiences while trying to "improve" himself. If you read The Hate You Give - you'll love this. I look forward to reading more from Nic Stone.
