I read every single one of these "Dear America" books.
They are SO good.
Full of meaning.
I cried in a lot of them because it's HORRIBLE to read what a lot of these people went through.
The "Dear America" books are REALLY good and I really recommended people to read them. They're so well written and they just have SO MUCH MEANING.
