When Donte is arrested at school, he begins a journey to learn about himself and the world around him, while also learning how to fence.
This was a great book. I find the style of writing refreshing and enticing. It’s not smooth, but it’s not disjointed either. I quite like it. The characters in this book are great, led by Donte who has a classic epiphany character arc.
Definitely enjoyed this story and learned a lot at the same time!
