With an incarcerated father and an estranged drug-addicted mother, Shanequa's dreams of higher education feel like a fantasy. When Shanequa gets the chance to attend a prestigious private prep school, she feels like her dreams might become reality. Shanequa finds it easier to lie to her new friends than tell them the truth about her family. When her lies are found out, and Shanequa strikes back in blind rage, her path changes forever.

3.5 Novel in verse by a spoken word artist. Felt very authentic but not super substantial. Definitely think kids will like it and strongly relate to it. Will booktalk it soon.
