This seems like an intense and weighty topic that could be incredibly intriguing to reflect on. Just from the preview, I was questioning my own assumptions about the juvenile jail system. It's truly something I've never thought deeply about before.
The main character's voice is so unique. It garners sympathy and sounds like a "real" teen, while also having some of that whiny, sarcastic tone that makes you understand why her family may still hold a grudge.
This seems like the best type of YA: thought-provoking, deep, and authentic.
