Dinky Hocker Shoots Smack! by M.E. Kerr

4.0

Quick read. Some of the themes/ideas are a little dated - or at least the way they are presented is dated.

LOVE that the Good Samaritan mom is all about helping the little "ghetto kids"
I really like the characters. None of them were easy or predictable. Except Marcus. His relapse was totally predictable.

For the record, I am a liberal democrat. But even though I think of republicans very much the way P. John was before he went away, I still felt like there could have been more depth to that aspect of his character and more reasoning for why he felt so strongly.

Natalia was so likable, Tucker had a great voice, Tucker's parents were SO nice to read (functioning and supportive parents who don't take over your life but don't die are in ridiculously short supply sometimes!)
