When I was 17, a high school guidance counselor tried to persuade me against going to an Ivy League school because of where I had come from and who I was. I went anyway and graduated. This book is a testament to that journey. It's out today!

Folks we got ourselves an official NYTIMES review! They love it! "Brown has written a guidebook of survival and wonder. [Her] greatest gift is evoking intimacy, and she delicately but firmly snatches the reader’s attention." @KarenValby thank you!! https://t.co/EJsePkQfC2

Echo Brown’s ‘Black Girl Unlimited,’ Anna-Marie McLemore’s ‘Dark and Deepest Red’ and Adam Silvera’s ‘Infinity Son’ expand the possibilities for teenage heroes.
