Elsewhere, California by Dana Johnson

4.0

Probably a 4.5 stars for me- the ending was really powerful. I enjoyed this book and I adored looking at the world through Avery’s eyes. I would be happy to continue to read her narration indefinitely. This seemed like such an American story to me. I could see this being good assigned reading at high schools and colleges because there is a lot to think about and it so beautifully addresses race in this country.
