I’m so happy to announce that Bang has received its fourth star, courtesy of the folks at Shelf Awareness, who say, in part:
Lyga shifts among variations on guilt, healing, gun violence and Islamophobia with ease as Sebastian struggles to cope with his complicated life. Though YA stories often absent parents from the action, Sebastian’s relationships with his estranged father and irreparably damaged mother grant an extra layer of reality. Painfully raw and accented with hope and anguish, Bang will connect solidly with older teens looking for a deep and affecting story.
Thanks, Shelf Awareness! Check out the entire review.
