The book follows a senior in highschool, Maverick. Maverick has been in a gang since he was
12 and has started selling marajuana to earn some extra money and to help his mom pay for
bills. Maverick finds himself with a son that he did not know that he had and now has to raise on
his own. Throughout the story you see Mav deal with becoming a new father while trying to
make the ends meet. Maverick’s ex-girlfriend comes to him saying that she is pregnant and
wants to keep the baby. Maverick then becomes a father of two while still in highschool. He
needs to be able to support his two children so he turns to selling hardcore drugs to make ends
meet. At the end of the story we see that Maverick has turned his life around and has stopped
selling drugs and is now studying to get his GED so he can get his highschool education out of
the way. I liked this book and gave it a four out of five. This book shows the struggle of
becoming a teen dad while being in a gang at the same time. The ending of the book was good
and left me satisfied with the characters in the book. This book should be read by anyone but
especially teens because most of the characters are around that age.
