Went through the first ten. Writing looks solid.
Kill the two widows on the very first page. Stay consistent with the characters' ages.
If I were you I would work on the characters' descriptions a bit. Introducing Theo -the protagonist- as an African-American (i dislike this btw) kid (and just that), feels lazy. Perhaps it's just me.
