I liked the book from the story perspective. Well told, from many different perspectives, with influence from the proper people in the proper places. Overall I enjoyed it, and just when I thought I had things figured out, I didn't. So, it kept me engaged through the book. The ending was rather anti-climactic though. There needed to be more. Either more story, or more drama, or more consequences. That's why this got a 3 star instead of a 4 star, in my opinion.
Spoilers: Don't read beyond if you don't want things potentially given away.
I did have a few issues with the way certain things were addressed.
If Asher were not white, he wouldn't have walked away from the initial crime scene. (They did kind of address this in a conversation with Jordan's wife, not recalling her name, but it was just glanced upon.)Were there no chaperones at their high school dance?! WTF?
Minimal parts of the storyline for the fathers of both Asher and Lily.Maya - WTH??? There needs to be more here!! She just walks? Nothing??
