This was an interesting one, I tight the story started out really strong, established some interesting themes and storylines I was excited to explore. I found that the book kind of just , fizzled out towards the end? I don’t know. 

I enjoyed the representation of anxiety, and how that related to the characters. The  characters themselves were quite well written, the relationship between Alex and Isaiah specifically made the entire reading experience worth it. 

This this would be a great read for a YA audience in understanding racism and gun violence in America.
