Actually, Moonrise by Sarah Crossan was good. I didn't feel like I lost anything with it being in verse. I was really surprised.<br /><br />I do love me some diverse stories, though, and like you, I want it immersed in what it means to be a part of that culture and not all about the "race issue" (not that that's not important, but like you said, I want to read about more than just that). Great list!<br /><br /><br />Here's my <a href="https://thewriterlyway.com/2019/04/02/tropes-i-will-forever-read/" rel="nofollow">TTT</a> post.Sammie @ The Bookwyrm's Denhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473613043498594281noreply@blogger.com
