Where to start... this book was amazing. All 400+ pages kept you interested. I just couldn't put the book down and had it finished in less than a week.

"The sound of the alarm that opens 'Native Son' was Richard Wright's urgent call in 1940 to America to awaken from its self-induced slumber about the reality of race relations in the nation,"

One of my all time favorite books. It is the story of Bigger Thomas, a young black man living in 1930s Chicago who feels his options are limited because of his race. Through a series of events, Bigger gains the power he desires, but at what cost.

I read this book and it was a great book. It gave me a look into how it was to live in those times as a black person. It's a book I think every teen should read. It's well written easy to follow and holds your interest until the end.
