I liked this much better than RESPONSE by the same author. Here we go back and forth between two basketball star buddies from high school, one white and the other black, getting each POV with each chapter change. The premise lies with a crime gone wrong in the beginning where both are involved but only one (black) is implicated. By the time circumstances catch up to white, his dad has hired a fancy lawyer and his fate does not hang in the balance to the same extent. Thus, Volponi explores issues of race and justice along with friendship and sport. There's also the issue of silence and betrayal -- if it means saving your own ass, do you spill the beans on your friend? Some profanity keeps this book edgy for the middle school crowd, with one killer episode in the middle that seems gratuitous and covers a crazy man spewing hatred and filth on the subway. Why? It makes a "judgment call" for 8th grade classroom libraries all the dicier when it didn't have to be that way. Anyway, for reluctant readers and sports fans, a winner.

It's been awhile since I read this book. I read it when the original came out. My kids were so into Harry Potter and all the controversy I just had to read them to and then I was hooked. Loved them all and so I will have the same review for all of them!

Better than most of the books about Warhol, but Bob Colacello's "Holy Terror" is still the best.
Good stories, if a little morbid. EDIT: They're often good because of the morbid. And also it's fun to read them and then sit there and go..."what." Or to summarize them, because they're always ridiculously random and kind of...abrupt.
Loved it! The story really picks up in this book!
What an amazing read that challenges our idolatry-laced culture. Claiborne invites us to consider whether or not our faith is compatible with the Empire. Can the Empire and the Kingdom really coexist? This very challenging and convicting read will be sure to rock your worldview with refreshing and prophetic looks at consumerism, patriotism and violence.

Do not ever quit because if you keep on trying hard enough what is yours will come to you. If u do quit think for the worst because there is nothing out there for you if you dont have any brains to back yourself up.

One of those detective books again!!!! This is a closer look not only at the corruption of the police on my lovely island, Puerto Rico, but, at police corruption all over the world. It's just upsetting to know the people who you thought were protecting you are actually doing other things. Think about it.........

excellent, perceptive account of the riot grrrl movement aided by thorough research and a readable and often quite poetic style. by turns moving, inspiring, sad and hopeful.
