Jacqueline Woodson recommends
thumb
Memory Piece (2024)
Lisa Ko
"Evocative and luminous. Ko once again introduces us to people we want to know deeply, then as always, delivers that and beyond. A glorious writer."
thumb
Redwood Court (2024)
DeLana R A Dameron
"A triumph of a debut, Redwood Court is storytelling at its best: tender, vivid, and richly complicated."
thumb
Rebecca, Not Becky (2023)
Catherine Wigginton Greene and Christine Platt
"A deep exhale of a narrative, REBECCA, NOT BECKY kept me laughing... and thinking. This is a reminder that talking about race doesn't have to be hard. It simply requires us to be honest."
