A lesson before dying

I liked this book. Once I got to the middle it was hard to put it down. It made me cry at the end.

“Make him a man, not a hog.” Teacher works with condemned man.

I was personally told by my Writer‰ЫЄs Craft teacher to read this novel “by tomorrow!” I refused to resist, even if the book had been read by Oprah‰ЫЄs freaking book club.
