Out of Darkness by Ashley Hope PérezMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I absolutely loved this book! I am writing a more detailed review for the Fall 2015 edition of JoLLE (Journal of Language and Literacy Education), so please check it out! This book is beautifully written and haunting. Once I got to know all of the characters, I couldn't put it down. Be warned that it is very dark, but it is also an important read. Please share it with your high school students, especially your female high school students! Also, the end of the novel is a testament to the power of writing and its ability to give marginalized people a voice. A worthwhile read!
