Almost DNF'd this one a few times in the first couple hundred pages but I'm glad I stuck it out. Such a moving story with memorable characters and themes that are still infuriatingly relevant today.
Graphic: Animal death and Child death
Moderate: Death, Racial slurs, Police brutality, Grief, Death of parent, Murder, Pregnancy, and Classism
