(1) YA Fifteen-year-old Tyrell has a lot on his plate: his father is in jail and his family is parked in a sordid motel. Booth grounds her story in Tyrell's tough-talking but vulnerable voice. Despite the grim setting evoked by the sensory prose, this isn't a story of violence and drugs; rather, it concerns the more intimate deprivations (and moments of connection) of living poor.
