Amanda (30 KP) rated Black Boy White School in Books

Jun 21, 2018

Black Boy White School was a book that I thoroughly enjoyed. For many people, they feel this not really belonging anywhere at some point in their life, just as our main character here did.

I was very sad at the end of the book because I was really hoping that he would continue at Belton Academy. However, due to financial problems, he was unable to return.

I would love to read a sequel to this book. Lots of interesting topics could be pursued, especially if he remains in Cleavland (such as how he deals with no longer fitting in, how he deals with violence, etc.)

Stalking Jack the Ripper

Book Rating

This was one of the few book series that I obsessively read and instantly loved. The romance isn't fast paced, there's historical facts that are interesting, and Maniscalco really knew how to captivate not just me, but other readers too (I got my friend obsessed with this series as well).
I will say, its not for those who don't like the extreme detail on violence and gore, but if you're a fan of crime novels and topics such as Jack the Ripper, then you ought to love this book!
I'm so glad I found this book and would happily recommend this to many people.

This book addresses some heavy topics. Which is shared in the content warning at the beginning of the book. I feel like this book did a fantastic job of being in the emotions and questions that would come along with the subject matter discussed. I only wish there was what I feel a better more complete ending but I also feel like that was the way it was meant to be to prove no decision has to be permanent you can keep a secret or decision to be quiet but thats not how it has to stay when or how to speak up is up to you.
