Bronxwood - Book review by Janae


Bronxwood by Coe Booth

Bronxwood is an African-American book about a boy named Tyrell who has more problems than many.  His dad is getting out of jail, his mom won't work, his little brother is in foster care, he's getting kicked out of his apartment, and he isn't having much luck with the ladies.  There is a lot of pressure on Tyrell and being stressed doesn't even begin to describe his attitude.  Bronxwood was very fast-paced and edgy.  It was one of the most down to earth books I have read in a long time.
