Can a new reader jump in with this tenth book?

However, for this book, you might want to read The Road to Memphis if you want to know the full story that led to Moe being on the run. (less)

Why is this considered a YA book? I understand that it was part of middle grade/YA series but on its own do you feel this book would be labeled adult.

While the characters are now adults (appealing to those who grew up reading the series like I did) I would still consider it YA for its handling of racial issues and relationships, but also for its lack of explicit sex and violence. There's no swearing, but be advised that the n-word is used throughout the novel due to the time period it takes place in. As a teacher and a parent, I have no problem allowing middle/high school students reading this. (less)

Are there any romantic relationships in this book? If so, what kind? Is it explicit (more than kissing)?

Can this series be read by an 11 -12 year old girl or is it too "adult" in theme?

I would recommend it for an 11-12 year old, but be advised of the time period of the book (post WWII-mid 1960s) because there are some instances where the n-word is used towards the main characters and there is some violence, but nothing graphic. Some parents might find this a bit upsetting. There are also no graphic sex scenes, but characters (as adults) do date, kiss, get married and have children. (less)
