Such a Fun Age
by Kiley Reid
I loved this book. I imagine it's one I will read a few more times before grasping all of the hidden meanings.
Again with a book that is receiving a lot of media and book club attention, I was nervous that the hype would ruin it for me. But this was not the case. The interesting balance between the contrasting characters creates such a rich story that I was completely enthralled the entire time reading. Emira, dealing with racial discrimination on top of growing into adulthood is incredibly relatable. And Kiley Reid does an amazing job of making Alix Chamberlain the embodiment of white guilt. I'll be rereading this at some point, because there is just so much to unpack.
