I really enjoyed Dear Justyce. It took me a minute to remember the characters and the story/situation as I read Dear Martin last year and apparently remembered none of it as I’m pretty sure I sped read it in one setting. ANYWAY! Unlike last year, I enjoyed the switch from third to first person as it really helped the story along. I liked reading Quan’s letters and then learning about his history and the life events that led him in his journey throughout the book.
