When I was reading the reviews for this book, I saw someone wrote that this book has "Drugs, bikers, prison breaks and incest".  How weird is that?  Those are all of my favorite things!  .............................what?  But honestly, the reason I wanted to check it out was that it was historical fiction, based around the Kingston Penitentiary Riot in Ontario Canada in 1971.  Which I didn't even know ever happened.  The prisoners that rioted could not have been Canadian prisoners, right?  They would be too polite to do that, I would think.This was a very interesting read.  It centers around Liza and Dace, who fall in love.  Oh, and they are cousins.  FIRST cousins.  And Dace is going to prison for a man's laughter?  Oh, I'm sorry, manslaughter.  Totally different.  The story focuses on their romantic feelings for one another, and trying to deal with their emotions.I don't really want to get more into the plot, because there's so much, and it's one that needs to be read to be appreciated.  The fact that they are cousins might creep some people out (and I'm not saying that I'm 100% cool with it...), but if you can get past that, it's a story of two young kids that are way in over their head in many different facets of their life, and they find each other.  I really enjoyed my time with this book, and will be waiting for what comes next from the author!
