Give Me Some Truth
Carson Mastick, a senior in high school and desperate to make his mark, on the reservation and off. A rock band--and winning Battle of the Bands--is his best shot. Maggi Bokoni just moved back to the reservation with her family. She's dying to stop making the same traditional artwork her family sells to tourists, stop feeling out of place in her new (old) home, and stop being treated like a child. Carson and Maggi--along with their friend Lewis--will navigate loud protests, even louder music, and first love in this stirring novel about coming together in a world defined by difference.
