Look Both Ways

Let me start by saying I LOVE Jason Reynolds.  He is brilliant.  So I was very intrigued with the concept of this book... 10 tales of a day...same school... ten different stories of kids leaving school.  Each brief chapter celebrated different characters and their struggles and joys of middle school.  You get glimpses of the others in each story, but don't see it until their story is laid out.  I will say I found it a bit confusing.  I could go back and read it again and probably pick up more brilliance of its interconnectedness.  I was confused by the bus falling from the sky, also.  My students probably would be, too.  (FIC REY)
