A review by frogqueen
The Liberation of Gabriel King by K.L. Going

hopeful medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

3.0

  • cute story about the friendship between a white boy and a black girl in recently-integrated georgia
  • they challenge each other to face their fears in order to become braver so they wind up doing things like catching bugs and
    standing up to local kkk members!
  • anyway some surprisingly frank and well done conversations about race in here, i never cease to be amazed at how relevant this shit continues to be
