By Jason Reynolds
William Holloman is on the most haunting elevator ride of his life. He’s been urged to break “the rules” he’s grown up with.
(No crying. No snitching. Get revenge.) Reynolds’ first novel in verse is a provocative, compelling, and essential love letter to young people in detention centers.
