The New David Espinoza
ISBN: 9780062489883
Publication Date: 11 February 2020

This own voices story from the acclaimed author of The Closest I've Come unflinchingly examines steroid abuse and male body dysmorphia. Perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds and Matt De La Pea.

David Espinoza is tired of being messed with. When a video of him getting knocked down by a bully's slap goes viral at the end of junior year, David vows to use the summer to bulk up- do what it takes to become a man-and wow everyone when school starts again the fall.

Soon David is spending all his time and money at Iron Life, a nearby gym that's full of bodybuilders. Frustrated with his slow progress, his life eventually becomes all about his muscle gains. As it says on the Iron Life wall,
What does not kill me makes me stronger.

As David falls into the dark side of the bodybuilding world, pursuing his ideal body at all costs, he'll have to grapple with the fact that it could actually cost him everything.

    Not a bad product, especially considering such a good price on these group buys

  2. Rated 5 out of 5

      Rainbow Doll from Bucharest, Romania

    I have had my eye on one of these for a long time but just out of my reach due to high price in stores. The group discount on groupspree is so much better!
