Book #98 Read in 2017
Dear Martin by Nic Stone
This was an excellent young adult book. Justyce is a smart black boy who attends a prep school. One night, he is helping his ex-girlfriend, who is drunk and half-white. A police officer cuffs Justyce, assuming he is up to no good. This has a lasting effect on Justyce and he begins to question his friendships, the way people see him and how Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would handle things. This is a must read for high school and adult readers alike.
