07/11/2019 12:01 AMThis is another important book on a topic ripped from today’s headlines: Duterte’s war on drugs, begun in 2016. Filipino-American Jay’s journey to find his cousin becomes a path of discovery, empathy, and defiance. I especially loved the depiction of journalism and social media trying to report the truth, and Jay’s struggle to understand the part he can play to help. Engaging and full of heart, this book is a gem for young adult boys.
