(3) YA A hate crime is perpetrated against HIV-positive Latino high-schooler Alex, and a roving point of view provides three different perspectives on the events that led up to it. The voices of the three narrators--the racist suspect, the developmentally disabled witness, and the victim--are sturdy and distinct, and the characters' internal debates are compelling.
Reviewer: Jeannine M. Chapman
