Hoodie (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798901901878)

HOODIE is a fearless, darkly funny coming-of-age story set where childhood ends early and survival is a daily skill. Hoodie is a sharp, imaginative kid navigating a world of gunfire on the street, bruises at home, and a school system that treats discipline like a pipeline to the police station.

As rumors spread and "snitch" becomes a life-or-death label, Hoodie learns that truth isn't always protection-it can be a target. And when forces far bigger than schoolyard politics start circling his family, the story widens into a tense, unsettling confrontation with corruption, legacy, and the price of being seen.

Blending gritty realism with razor-edged social commentary, HOODIE exposes how power moves through neighborhoods, institutions, and bloodlines-until one final reckoning forces Hoodie to decide what justice means when the system was never built for him.
