If you read one nonfiction book this year, make it this one
Walking Gentry Home is a powerful debut from 19 year old Alora Young. Read if you enjoy Elizabeth Acevedo and Kwame Alexander.
Highly recommend the audiobook narrated by the author for the true In Verse experience!
Alora Young chronicles several generations of Black women in her family. A beautiful family saga through ancestral story-telling

Better as an audiobook because it’s written in verse. Honor her family legacy by telling their forgotten story and how it impacts her life today
