Let me start by saying I’m not a fan of Cliffhangers. Delayed gratification is not my thing. But this one will definitely be worth the wait. This is story does a wonderful job painting the picture of teenage life in the inner city. The authenticity of using nuances such as slang and issues within the urban community is top tier! The character arcs are so detailed, I’m over here rooting for some characters while absolutely detesting others. This will be a wonderful read for my high school students. But also a novel that can be enjoyed by adults as well.
