Dear Martin by Nic Stone
Justyce McAllister is top of his class and set for the Ivy League—but none of that matters to the police officer who just put him in handcuffs. And despite leaving his rough neighborhood behind, he can’t escape the scorn of his former peers or the ridicule of his new classmates. Justyce looks to the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for answers. But do they hold up anymore? He starts a journal to Dr. King to find out.
Then comes the day Justyce goes driving with his best friend, Manny, windows rolled down, music turned up—way up, sparking the fury of a white off-duty cop beside them. Words fly. Shots are fired. Justyce and Manny are caught in the crosshairs. In the media fallout, it’s Justyce who is under attack.

Which of these new YA books are on your list?
I can’t wait to read Midnight Dance! The cover is stunning, and I’ve heard some pretty wonderful things about it. I’m also curious about A Line in the Dark. I haven’t heard too much about it, but I’ve loved Malinda’s past books. Great post, Jen!
Have you read A line int he Dark yet? I see it everywhere but not many reviews yet.
For What It’s Worth
Nope!
I’ll have to look at Line in the dark, that one looks kinda freaky! And I need Last Chance too since I read the first one earlier this year.
I don’t know nothing about Line in the Dark or Last Chance!
