Lamar Giles recommends
Muted (2021)
Tami Charles
"A captivating and unflinching view into the dark corners of the music industry where souls are crushed in the silence between songs."
Love Is a Revolution (2021)
Renée Watson
"Renée Watson writes timeless fiction; Love Is A Revolution is more evidence of that indisputable fact. Nala's voice speaks to the heart's gentlest desires, and her journey is not just one readers will recognize, but one they've likely lived, or are currently living. Either way, Watson is a deft navigator who never loses her way."
Maya and the Rising Dark (2020)
(Maya and the Rising Dark, book 1)
Rena Barron
"Maya is the kind of hero the whole world needs. If you're dwelling into the dark you couldn't ask for a better protector (or a better read)!"
