Opinion:
Autobiography of My Dead Brother was the best book I have read this year. The beginning was slow and boring, but that soon changed. I enjoyed the emotion poured into the book and I almost cried at several parts. The "blackcent" was accurately portrayed. The ending especially tugged at my heartstrings. Despite the young- looking cover and "cartoony" art style, this book is very mature with a lot of violence. I just can't believe how emotional this book was.
