Jackpot by Nic Stone
4.0

Nic Stone is SUH GOOD. I’ve loved everything she’s written. This one tackled some touchy things (poverty and wealth, classism, not having health insurance, biracial relationships, single parenthood, etc) while still reading like the young adult novel it is. It’s centered around two teens who come from very different worlds who end up teaming up to try to hunt down a winning lottery ticket that could change one of their lives. It has light moments, humor, a lot of realness, and an end I didn’t expect but really loved! Basically, if you come across a Stone book, READ IT.
