  • QUOTE from LONG WAY DOWN by Jason Reynolds
  • Grieving the loss of his brother Shawn, Will decides to seek revenge on Shawn's killer. He takes Shawn's gun and as he descends the long way down to the lobby, he meets people from different parts of his life, including Dani, his childhood friend. When Dani and Will were at the park, Dani was tragically killed by a drive-by shooting. She was only 8. When Will tells Dani his plan to avenge his brother, she asks him the poignant question, What if you miss?, sowing a seed of doubt.
