"Funny, rude and violently enjoyable for 13+"
Amanda Craig, New Statesman
"Burgess is back with a punchy novel about white supremacy and urban warfare... [it reflects] the trend of YA books addressing intersectional issues in ways the adult market struggles to do"
The Bookseller
"Marti’s voice is unique and her will to survive is like nothing the Bloods could have possibly imagined ... her story rips and races at breakneck speed"
LoveReading
"Utterly terrifying... devastatingly clever, completely mindblowing and will leave you with so much to think about"
NE Book Awards
"As punchy and bold as you'd imagine a Melvin Burgess novel to be"
The School Librarian
