Review

Huge jaw, crooked teeth and large hands have been ammo for bullies for as long as Chace can remember -- but nothing beats the bullying that he gets when his mother starts dating an Iranian man and it turns into racism. Chace has had enough and decides it is time to turn the tables, but instead of face-to-face he goes to the Internet which leads to a suspension from school.

A fast-paced story that deals with bullying, racism, cyberbullying and the consequences. This book is part of the Suspended series that deals with the troubles and actions that end up getting most teens suspended from school. Recommended for grades 7 and up. Excellent for reluctant readers.

Overall Book Score: very good
