  3. The Bronx Masquerade is an awesome book !! I really enjoy reading books with poetry in them.If you liked the Bronx Masquerade you would really like the Ellen Hopkin books. Books such as Crank,Glass,Impulse,Identical,Tricks,Burned and many more, but these are the only ones i have read so far. Also PUSH FICTION is like the book Bronx Masquerade. You can see more book options for PUSH FICTION at www.thisispush.com

  4. I kind of think Tyrone Bittings appears too much in the book.I would like to know alot more from other characters as well.I like this book very much because of the issues the students have are expressed through poems.Also I think they are very brave for sharing their poems with issues to people.I think this book is very good,a true thumbs up!. ~Alexander Nguyen

  5. I think that the book is good so far. There is one character that appears to much. That is Tyrone Bittings. Anyway, the book is kind of interesting. It shows how many kids are hiding secrets that they don't want anyone to know. I feel that they should stop trying to be popular and show their real selves. Thank You. ~ Shyquon Mitchell

  12. Bullying,teasing,discrimination why do we do it does it build us up as we break someone else down. Don't you get angry when it happens. Do you count to ten or take deep breaths. Can't take another minute of this disgrace. Some of you give bad names to the human race. Stop the bullying,teasing,discrimination. Before we all get angry and start to rebel. Make this the end of all this unnecessary anger and hate. ~mystery A~
