Make sure to read/listen to the authors note at the end of the novel. There’s an important message written by the author.

This book is a 10/10 for me. It’s so well written, and the characters and plot are perfectly developed. The struggle of the story is directly related to the black experience in the world and especially in contemporary America. This is a story anyone of any age or background could enjoy and learn from. I am excited to read the sequel.
