What reading level is New Jersey Noir book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

SOLOMON University Heights (Newark) En route to her job at the morgue, Jinx walked on JFK Boulevard to the PATH station at Journal Square. It was hot for June, the evening cloud cover an airless ceiling pressing on the street. A grimy storefront diorama displayed mannequins behind plate glass, girls with bald heads and painted-on lashes, clad in cheap, thin dresses. They stood frail against the hard gray light. Commuters hustled by, indifferent to the girls’ orphaned gazes.
At the station, a man
... with a crew cut, his florid face glistening in the heat, watched her stride by in her work pants. He spit on the tracks.
“Walk like a woman,” he said hoarsely.
The train arrived. She wedged into the car. Sweat trickled down the backs of her thighs. The train labored past boarded-up factories, fossils of a former manufacturing town, brick shells tagged with graffiti (LIVE FOR TODAY) that had migrated from the gentrifying precincts of Jersey City. A trash curd drifted by with the Passaic River, awakened by the recent heavy rains.
