No Way Out by Peggy Kern


The is a boy named Harold and he lives with is grandma after is mother died, and his dad no longer cared for Harold. One day when Harold's grandmother walks out the apartment, she slips and falls and ends up with a major injury. Harold looks at his grandmothers bill from the hospital and it all sums up to around 10,000$. Then he found a envelope with is name on it from the Child Services that say if there is no other guardian for Harold he will go to a foster home. He passes the grocery and sees a help wanted sign goes for a job.
[SPOILER ALERT!!!]
He sees that it will take him forever to pay for his grandma's bills so he works for a drug dealer and one day he had enough and tells Londell (the drug dealer) he quits. Londell tells him that he can't quit and threatens to hurt him and his grandma. Harold finds there is no way out.

I loved this book a lot! It mad me cry at the end and I felt really close to the story and when someone interrupted I would get really mad because it was a page turner. This book will touch your heart because it touched mine. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone because everyone will fall head over heels for this book!
