Book Review: Proxy
Proxy is an excellent book by Alex London that features a boy named Syd who is a “Proxy” to another boy named Knox, his ‘Patron”. Whenever the patron gets in trouble the Proxy is punished in their place. In a society where the rich rule and debt keeps the poor in their place, Syd and Knox need to find a way to settle the debts of not just themselves, but everyone.
I really love the premise of this book, so I snatched it up right way and boy... I didn’t know what I was getting into. The characterization was amazing and the book kept me wondering at every corner. It was exceptionally well paced and the action parts flowed seamlessly in and out of the story. Everything that happened had purpose and there were no random offshoots that led nowhere. Everything was connected.
The relationships between characters were amazing, whether the strained relationship between Knox and his Father, Knox and Syd, and all of the other characters that added tons of depth to this story. When something is mentioned earlier in the book, keep note, because every action comes around again and affects the story significantly.
London is a fantastic author that is going places. Even though Syd is a unique character of color and apart of the LGBT community, that isn’t what defines him. That’s just one aspect of his complex and fascinating character.
I highly recommend this book and give it a whopping 4.5/5, a stunning twist on the dystopian and YA genre. I applaud you, London. Thank you.

I am fascinated by the 'personality' of Jesus, in rather a sentimental, arguably even maudlin way. Everything about his life moves me. On the one hand, I feel toward him a kind of personal attraction and closeness that is most reminiscent of my feeling for certain fictional characters - which makes sense, considering that I've encountered him thorugh exactly the same means, i.e. by reading about him in books.
