I think Darius and Twig might hit a bumpy road later on in the story causing them to get into to a fight and be mad at each other but then find a way to fix it.

I think the thing that surprised me most was when Twig's uncle started to act racist towards Darius on page 64-68. Being that Darius is Twigs bestfriend it kind of surprised how rude his uncle was being to him and that he said "Black people think life is about being athletes, they're not smart" and "If you're lazy like some black people, then every business is bad" i wouldn't expect Twigs uncle to be so rude/arrogant and racist to Darius since they're best friends and his mom and grandma love him and are always nice to him.

This is of when Darius's mom was fixing the sink and Darius found out the reason she's not calling the landlord to fix it is because they're short on rent so he offered her $40 to try to help out

In The story "Darius and Twig" i can make a text-to-text connection. In the book "The Skin I'm In" the main character Maleeka also grows up in the rough part of her neighborhood and she also deals with getting bullied by someone at her school. Kind of like how Darius gets heckled by Midnight and Tall Boy all the time. Another thing they have in common is that Maleeka's father died so her and her mom have been struggling a little financially ever since and are just slipping by. Kind of like Maleeka, Darius's father left them and they started to also struggle financially and are also just slipping by but Twig helps take care of him, his mom, and his brother when stuff starts to get a little tough on his mom.
