Solo by Kwame Alexander

SoloSolo by Kwame Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved Kwame Alexander's narration of this awesome novel in verse exploring Blade's journey as a good teen beset with a troubling family history (his singer father in and out of rehab, mother dead, & harsh sister) that results in him needing to sneak around to see the love of his life, Chapel. When Blade continues to spiral into hurt, confusion, and anger - his sister's revelation of a family secret has him completely adrift. How will he deal, I rooted for Blade - hero through and through! I also loved in the audiobook narration the songs sung by Randy Preston- so so so good! This is one book that deserves to be heard!
