This book got me.
This story is about running. Who you run for. And who you run from.
Castle Cranshaw (who prefers to be called "Ghost") is a kid from the wrong neighborhood, with a love of sunflower seeds and basketball, and a habit of getting into "altercations" until he stumbles upon a track practice and decides to step into a race. Coach takes note of Ghost's natural talent of running and offers him a spot on the team.
Listen. This book is incredible and everyone needs to read it. Sure, it seems like a predictable story. You know Coach is gonna be great and you know Ghost is going to be challenged by being a part of a team. You even know that somehow he's going to get caught in his latest "altercation". But you don't know how!
Ah! I loved this book so much! I can't even pick a favorite part because it's just that good. And the best part: It's the first of a series!!! I cannot wait for more!
EVERYONE READ THIS BOOK!
