September 11, 2021 will mark the 20th anniversary of 9/11, and I can't believe it. I still have distinct memories of that day, watching the events unfold on my apartment TV and talking about everything with my fellow University of Montevallo students. Today's young people don't have those memories, but they do have a way to immerse themselves in that tragic historic event. Alan Gratz's new novel, Ground Zero, delivers a pulse-pounding and unforgettable take on history and hope, revenge and fear, and the stunning links between the past and present.
