About this listen
Rex Ogle explores bonds of loyalty and friendship and how they’re tested by drugs and violence in this propulsive novel-in-verse.
Diego Benevides works hard. His single mother encourages him to stay focused on school, on getting into college, on getting out of their crumbling neighborhood. That’s why she gave him her car.
Diego’s best friend, Lawson, needs a ride—because Lawson is dealing. As long as Diego’s not carrying, not selling, it’s cool. It’s just weed.
But when Lawson starts carrying powder and pills and worse, their friendship is tested and their lives are threatened. As the lines between dealer and driver blur, everything Diego has worked for is jeopardized, and he faces a deadly reckoning with the choices he and his best friend have made.
Award-winning memoirist and poet Rex Ogle’s searing first novel-in-verse is an unforgettable story of the power and price of loyalty.
"The expertly paced plot twist at the end makes Benny and Lawson’s story heartbreakingly unforgettable. … Achingly, beautifully written."—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Rex and Ramon both do it again.
Ramon, once again, shows his skill with emotions and dialogue, and Rex does the same with writing. No spoilers, but, the ending almost had me crying when I got to it. Was rooting for Benny all the way.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
