This book is SOOOOOO AMAZING! I've been wanting to read this for a while and finally got to for a school project. This book can be related to and read by people of all types. It uses the N-word a few times as well as some cuss words, but it's not super bad. It's also a super heart-breaking story about a young girl who struggles with the death of her friend, police brutality, gang violence, relationships, and her identity around specific people. She feels like she can't always be her true self around certain people.

Brilliant writing. Tragedy and a search for justice drive the storyline, which artfully details the nuances of institutional racism, adolescence, generational trauma, broken systems, the toll of code-switching, inter-personal racism, healthy and unhealthy family relationships, addiction, abuse, gangs, and more. The stories of the various, sometimes unexpected, ways people are trying to make things better for the people around them support and deepen the overall story of one teenage girl's journey through heart-breaking loss and incredibly difficult decisions. Heart-wrenching, thought-provoking, eye-opening, humbling, inspiring, and ultimately hopeful.
