pucksandpaperbacks 's review for:

All American Boys by Jason Reynolds, Brendan Kiely
5.0

Wow. What a powerful book. I'm ashamed that it's taken me this long to read Jason Reynolds' work because I loved this book so much. It executes the topic of police brutality and white privilege excellently! I also listened to this via audiobook while reading it physically as well and the audiobook was awesome. The narrator had a voice for each character and I feel that I got to know Rashad and Quinn better having heard their voices.

I only have a little complaint which is that I really wish the book had continued on and shown the court case/trial.

Overall, I highly recommend this.
