I was very excited when I first heard about this series and was happy to receive this book from Orca for review.
The story is told in the voice of the main character, Bunny, and as such we have to try and read through his spelling and grammar mistakes. At first I found this very difficult but after a couple of chapters I got to like this, it added to my understanding of Bunny and his character.
The story is set in my neighbourhood of Mimico (southern Etobicoke) so I had a good grasp on the geography of the story which helped me with the atmosphere of the novel. I likely see kids like Bunny and his friends every day at my work in our local high school.
It's frightening to see how one person's mistake can alter the lives of so many people in such huge way. There were hints of what Bunny's cousins and brother are tasked with and look forward to reading the other six books in this set.
