I love the Bluford Series books and The Gun is definitely one of my favorites from that series. The Gun lets the reader get inside the mind of a bully (the same one that was described in The Bully) so you start to understand how the mind of bully works and how they feel once they start to lose their power/influence over others. It's a good book to read in middle school because all of you will at some point most likely encounter a bully and I think this book gives you plenty of realistic advice on how to handle yourself.
It's a pretty easy read and it's not too long so even those of you who don't like to read will find yourself enjoying this book. It does deal with some really tough issues of growing up but the ending offers hope. I highly recommend this for boys.
