Summer Reading- Give A Boy A Gun

Brendan and Gary's friendship definitely grew throughout the book. They were always good friends, but not even close to how close they were at the end of the book. As the story goes on, they grow closer because they constantly get teased and only have each other. When they start to plot the shooting, they feel so close because they have this connection that nobody else shares, and they're in the plan together. I would rate this book a 9.5 out of 10. I read it in two days because i couldn't put it down. The story is so exhilarating and suspenseful towards the end. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone from 5th grade up because it's violent and has minor drug use.
