Y'all, THIS BOOK!!!!! Ok, so after I got myself together from crying at this ending like no other, I shared an excerpt up now on #HSAReads Flipgrid.
@randyribay, you are a force! What an incredibly powerful novel. (Thread 1 of 5)

Synopsis: After Jay finds out his cousin Jun was murdered, he spends spring break of his senior year staying with extended family in the Philippines trying to figure out why. Will he be able to track down the truth? (Thread, 2 of 5)

As a Filipino-American, what change can he seek in a country that hasn't been his home since he was 1? And if he finds the truth, what will he do with it? (Thread, 3 of 5)

For my Middle School fam, it's definitely YA. It's gripping, it's raw, it's real, both in tragedy and beauty. The heavy weight of truth & justice makes this the emotional tour-de-force that it is. Chat with fam, read and talk about it together! (Thread, 4 of 5)

Cannot wait to add to #ProjectLITHSA stack as an option for our Redhawks. So. So. So. Good! (Thread, 5 of 5).
