			        		&#xA0; &#x201C;Riveting . . . An indictment of the system.&#x201D;&#x2014;Sam Roberts, New York Times &#xA0; &#x201C;As U.S. courts send more than 250,000 minors each year into adult prisons (according to a 2008 Juvenile Justice report), Chura&#x2019;s anguished, incisive depiction of one of those outposts is . . . a compelling call to repair our society&#x2019;s brokenness.&#x201D;&#x2014;Cathi Dunn MacRae, Youth Today &#xA0; &#x201C;In its many twists and turns, the book discovers in the prison labyrinth a metaphor of the confinements and refuges of the human spirit. In the face of every person he so carefully depicts, the author shows us a mirror.&#x201D;&#x2014;David Kaczynski, Times Union &#xA0; &#x201C;[Chura] recalls the raw, gritty emotions of young men with little education and few options. . . . A compelling personal look at the failings of the juvenile justice system.&#x201D;&#x2014;Booklist
