After Tupac and D Foster by Jacqueline Woodson was a Newbery Honor book from a few years ago. The book is narrated by a 12-year-old girl who describes life on her block, her friendship with Neeka and the new foster girl D, and how they follow the what happens to their favorite rapper, Tupac.
This was a really well-written book--Jacqueline Woodson's books just seem to have a beautiful flow of words, so it's a nice read. I didn't really love the story or feel too particularly attached to the characters, but it was okay enough that I finished the book.
Rating: * (1/3 = It was okay)
