I've really enjoyed this series!  I am impressed at how Craft has been able to explain different forms of racism and capture what being a POC in the U.S. feels like.  The story has multiple layers while still being understandable by young readers.  That's the reality of being a tween/teen, juggling all of these aspects of life while trying to figure out who you are.  It's even harder when you're looked at differently.

I also appreciate the funny moments, word puns, and pop culture references.  I think it makes it a good read for middle grade and up.
