Did anybody else read tangerine as a kid? I still think about it pretty often and I'm 30.

My brother was assigned that in school and we had it in the RV on a camping trip, so I picked it up and read it one evening. Both the info on citrus growing, and the violence, are things I still remember. Fucked up.

Was it assigned reading? Where did you go to school? I've always wondered if that book made it into reading lists anywhere outside of Florida.

Yep, assigned reading in Florida
