What are some of your favorite #OwnVoices books? Have you tried any of the ones on my list? As always thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!
I guess I'd better read American Street. I started it and wasn't sure I liked it so I set it aside. I love THE HATE YOU GIVE. My TTT Books I am grateful for
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't my usual book, but I was definitely glad I stuck with it. :)
DeleteThanks for sharing, Anne.
I read 3 of these and liked them very much. In fact, I loved Genie Lo, and am eagerly awaiting the next Brooklyn Brujas book. Other #OwnVoices books I really enjoyed were The Authentics, When Dimple Met Rishi, Wild Beauty, and I Believe in the Thing Called Love.
ReplyDeleteThose are all on my tbr - I'm especially looking forward to When Dimple Met Rishi. :)
DeleteI've had copies of Labyrinth Lost and Shadowshaper on my bookshelf for a while now. I really need to read them soon.
