Tell the Wolves I'm Home by Carol Rifka Brunt
4.5

Really beautifully written. A heartwrenching story about a teen struggling with the loss of her uncle to AIDS in the 1980s. I felt so many emotions reading this - compassion, anger, frustration. But the way grief is handled by the main character was beautiful to me. There was one part of the plot (minor) I didn't love - or maybe didn't understand the purpose?
