The free verse format is an excellent way to tell this story for young adults without getting bogged down in decades of details.

Highly recommend. Excellent job of weaving the contemporary and historical voices and plots together.

Trying to make it through one last Printz contender before Monday. So far this one is holding up well.

March: Book Three | Andrew Aydin, John Lewis

Each book in this series was better than the last. I'll admit to weeping through parts of this one. I feel the message in this book is even more powerful than other boos I've read covering this topic because the illustrations sync so perfectly with the text. This is an essential book for every school library.

Incredible book but a difficult read. A stark look at rape culture that does not shy away from calling it out when it happens. My heart just aches for Alex.
