8 reviews for The Black Kids

  1. Ansaf S

    Absolutely loved it! Boynton perfectly captures the angst and confusion of being a teenager during a turbulent time. A book you can’t put down!

  2. Kokila Nautiyal

    A raw and honest portrayal of the LA riots and their impact. I liked the historical setting. Ashley’s internal struggles were relatable. Highly recommend!

  3. Tanushri Mehra

    This book made me think. Great exploration of race and class. Some parts were slow, and I wished for more character development but overall great.

  4. Nandini Rathi

    I had mixed feelings about ‘The Black Kids.’ While the themes were important, I struggled to connect with Ashley. The writing was good, the book, not for me.

  5. Hargun Kaur

    I really enjoyed this book. Ashley is a compelling character and the story is well-written. I did feel like some parts dragged on a bit. Overall, a good read.

  6. Suryansh Kanojia

    The book was ok, but I was expecting more. I think the hype might have been too high. It was a decent read, but nothing special. I feel neutral about it.

  7. Harsh Khera

    I expected more depth. A good read about Ashley navigating her identity but I’m disappointed by how predictable the climax was. Good for highschoolers though!

  8. Ankush Kumar Singh

    A powerful story, but hard to read at times. Ashley’s experience is eye-opening. Deals with tough topics. Trigger warning. Glad I read it but emotionally draining.
