Publisher Description
An astonishing new voice in teen literature, writing what is sure to be one of the most talked-about debuts of the year.Tyrell is a young African-American teen who can't get a break. He's living (for now) with his spaced-out mother and little brother in a homeless shelter. His father's in jail. His girlfriend supports him, but he doesn't feel good enough for her -- and seems to be always on the verge of doing the wrong thing around her. There's another girl at the homeless shelter who is also after him, although the desires there are complicated. Tyrell feels he needs to score some money to make things better. Will he end up following in his father's footsteps?

Longtime favorite
Read this back in high school 12 years ago and THIS is the book that made me fall in love with reading. I’ve reread it about 4 times. I’ll probably keep it in rotation. A genuine love story of a troubled kid.
Love ❤️
I have loved this book ever since I was in the 6th grade in 2006 .. I’m 28 years old now && I still love it 🥲
A very, very good book
 I really enjoy reading this book. learning about the characters and their stories. I’m really looking forward to reading part two this is something I can definitely see as a TV show series.
