Dragon Pearl by Yoon Ha Lee
4.0

It took me a few chapters to warm up to this one, but after that I was hooked and eager to know how Min's journey to find out what really happened to her brother turned out. I love how Korean folklore was so beautifully woven in to a space fantasy. There was plenty of humor mixed in with magic. Also, I love how the concept of gender fluidity and different pronouns came up throughout the story without being the main focus, which helps to normalize them.

This is a fun hero's journey space adventure that I think many middle schooler's will love.
