I decided to go with Another Day in the Death of America because it’s on my 2018 TBR. It’d a book hat I’m hesitant about reading because of the tragedy it contains. However, I realize and accept that these stories need to be told. Sadly, gun control is something we still can’t seem to tackle properly in the US. Let’s hope we won’t wait until the number of dead rises far beyond its current number. “Saturday, 23 November 2013, ten children and teens were shot dead. The youngest was nine; the oldest was nineteen. White, black, and Latino, they fell in suburbs, hamlets, and ghettos. None made the national news. There was no outrage about their passing. It was just another day in the death of America, where on average seven children and teens are killed by guns daily.” (Inside flap of Another Day in the Death of America) “24 hours. 8 states. 10 young lives lost to gun violence.”
