Do you fight with your cousins, sisters, or brothers? Sometimes do you think you have better bonds with your friends instead of family? Well if so, Blood Is Thicker is the right book for you. Sixteen year old Hakeem Randall has to leave all of his friends and his beloved Darcy to go live with his cousin and his parents because of his father’s kidney cancer. He used to be so close to his cousin, Savon, but when he gets to Detroit he finds out their bond is not nearly as strong as it used to be. Now they fight and Hakeem finds out a truth he never thought was possible. Is blood thicker than water in this book? Find out as this outstanding fiction story keeps you at the edge of your seat from beginning to the twisted end.
I give this book a ten out of ten because you learn that family is more important than friends. Also if you take the time to get to know a person your worst enemies might just become your best friends. This book reminds me of my family because sometimes we fight and sometimes I wish I could trade family with friends, but you shouldn’t because deep down you know that your family is always there to support you and you love them more than anything else in the world. Also I really liked this book because the twists and turns that happen from beginning to end. It keeps you staying on the same path then takes you to a whole new place that you never would’ve thought possible.
