Dear Martin by Nic StoneMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This YA contemporary story has an honest, authentic voice, and the storyline is relevant and timely. It would be a great companion read to THUG by Angie Thomas. It would be nice if everyone in America decided to read both stories.
Even though it is a short book, there is a lot to consider and reconsider with this one. It navigates through difficult topics, in particular American race relations, in a way that is easy to follow and captivating.
I'm happy this story exists. Teens everywhere needed this story, and so do adults. If it changes the way anybody thinks or reacts, then that is even better.
