Anger Is a Gift by Mark Oshiro

3.0

I liked the plot concepts a lot and the characters were developed well as the story went on. I liked how main characters, as well as side characters were noticeably shaped by both events in their past, and in the book’s events. It is a great book about and for teen activists, and was quite emotionally told, which I felt enhanced the reading experience. However, I had trouble really getting started with this book. The first few chapters didn’t really draw me in the way I would have wanted them too. Yes, I felt a connection to the characters, but I wasn’t as invested in the story line until at least half way through the book.
