Queen and Conqueror by Isabelle Olmo was AMAZING! So many things I didn't see coming!
I can't believe I took so long to read this book, but after meeting Isabelle at Imaginarium, I knew I needed to make it happen.
Surprise, surprise, Queen Almira is a mixed-race woman, and I didn't know exactly how much that was going to mean to me until I read it.
Most often, I've read about mixed people not usually written by other racialized people, so that meant a lot to me to spontaneously see. ❤️❤️❤️
