Race to the Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse

Sometimes you just need a middlegrade quest adventure, and this was certainly a fun one. I was so excited about the Rick Riordan Presents imprint when it was started, and I still am, but I realized I'm about 5 years behind in reading them, since this one came out in 2019. Much to catch up on!
I love that this is a standalone story. There should be more of those tbh! And it was really interesting to learn more about Navajo mythology, which I can't say I knew much, if anything about. The writing was super engaging and held my attention really well, the book was often funny, and the mythology was super accessibly explained, never making it hard to grasp.
