Saint Iggy | K.L. Going

Rating:

Iggy Corso is misunderstood. His mother is prone to disappear, his father is always drunk, their dealer is frequently banging down the door, and he just sees things differently than other people. Like the incident in Spanish class with the new girl. But if he wants to make his case, he’ll have to wait for his hearing. In the meantime, he plans to make a plan. A big one. To change people’s mind about him.

Instead, he ends up falling into a drug-deal gone bad, being taken in by a friend’s wealthy mother, and realizing that Public School probably isn’t the right place for him after all. So maybe his grand plan isn’t going to happen…but that doesn’t mean he can’t still do a really big thing.
