The Last Last-Day-of-Summer by Lamar Giles

4.0

Super fun middle grade adventure, great story with great characters and a great setting: a quirky small town where it’s ordinary for out of the ordinary things to happen, cousins who are already legendary before the story begins.

It was fun to read a fantasy-sci fi-adventure book with POC characters living normal and not so normal lives. Race and racism and poverty and injustice and civil rights are all important, but white characters get stories without them. Why can’t everyone else? Loved this ❤️
