This was such a sad, crazy book about Nikki's addiction. On the positive side he is now in recorvery and giving back all he can to those he can.

I really loved this book! I fell in love wth the characters and didn't want this book to end. I beleive we have come a long way in how we treat people who are different. Having said that I do know we still have a long way to go. We really do all deserve to be treated with the same love and respect no matter what color or gender we are. Oh and did I say I really loved this book ! :)

I enjoyed this book. It's about Rachel who is an 11yr old 1/2 danish, 1/2 black girl. The story begins with a tragic "accident" her mother takes her and her brother and baby sister up to the roof of their apartment building and they "fall" off she survives and goes to live with her grandmother. It's the story of Rachel coming to terms of who she is white,black,both and how she comes to terms with what happened to her. I love how the author draws you in and how important all the characters become and tie together Rachel's story.
