The Boy in the Black Suit

The title of the book is The Boy in the Black Suit.  The Author is Jason Reynolds.  I think he is an amazing author.  He has written lots of books that everyone seems to love.  Some of the books he has written include, Ghost, When I was the Greatest, All American Boys and more.  He usually writes in the genre of fiction.

The story Is about a highschool boy named Matt.  He just recently lost his mother.  He only has one friend named Chris.  They are the best of friends.  There is semi conflict In this story.  Lots of people judging him because he always wears the same black suit (Even Matt’s best friend wants to know what is up with the black suit.  Matt been wearing it ever since his mom died.)

I like the book alot I think people should read this.  It is very good.  It will not  disappointed you.  I like the book because the main character is close to my age In because he Is In high school and another reason Is that the book does an okay job showing how people feel after they lose someone they love and how they deal with the aftermath of the situation.  The main target for this book was teenagers because we can relate to some of the stuff In the book .unlike adults but If an adult would like to read It they could .but there outlook would be different from ours.

I would say to give this book a chance It is not that long maybe two hundred fifty eight pages.  Words are kinda small but you can still see them.  I think people would like this book a lot.
