Fantastic Story

👏👏👏👏👏 amazing work Angie Thomas!!! It was a little slow in some places, but man what a beautiful piece of literature! I could picture and see every bit of the frustration Bri was feeling with her school and the way she, and her friends, were being treated. Its nearly impossible to keep your cool sometimes, take it from another hot head. And sometimes it feels like everyone hates you. I felt every bit of Bri's emotions. That is some amazing writing. I love how Angie described how easy it is to be taken advantage by another person. How Supreme wanted Bri to be something she was not. Im so glad that Bri stood up for herself and decided who she wanted to be. I love how strong she was regardless of what people thought of her. She had an amazing support system! Love love love this story
