Dear Justyce

ARC from NetGalley. 4.5 Teens will love this as much if not more than Dear Martin. You don't have to have read Dear Martin before reading this, but it's a direct continuation of characters and story, so it'll make more sense & increase your enjoyment of you have. You'll see updates on not just Quan but Justyce, SJ, Doc, and Jared, and on Quan's side, Martel, Trey, and Brad. I knocked of half a star because there's some weirdly abrupt plot explanation (especially the scene with Justyce, SJ, & Jared in car). The story is ultimately hopeful, and though you want it to be true, it's unfortunately not that believable, so I'm glad Nic addressed that in her note at the end. A great discussion book and class read for 8th - 10th ELA. This will definitely be on the next Project Lit list! I plan to get multiple copies for the library, because demand is going to be HIGH.
