Concrete Park, Vol. 1: You Send Me by Erika Alexander, Robert Alexander, Tony Puryear
4.0

Engaging enough. I'm not big on the crime/ gang thriller genre, but there were still things about the book for me to enjoy. I don't really have a bead on the characters yet. We see some of Isaac's back story, which was good, but I spent most of my time wanting to know more about Luca and her girl gang. In a lot of the dystopians I've read, women have little to no power and are just prey to be targeted by men, so I wanted more details on how she came to power and maintained it. But for what this book is, it's worth the read.
