Story
Growing up in an affluent suburb of New York City, 16-year-old Nevaeh Levitz never thought much about her biracial roots. When her Black mom and Jewish dad split up, she relocates to her mom's family home in Harlem and is forced to confront her identity for the first time. Nevaeh wants to get to know her extended family, but because she inadvertently passes as white, her cousin thinks she's too privileged, pampered, and selfish to relate to the injustices African Americans face on a daily basis.

Such an emotional and personal story
Reviewed: 11-09-20
I loved the storytelling, the way the characters are described and how through fictional characters the author described her own life journey struggling with her complex identity. As a young Jewish woman, with different backgrounds, I felt so deeply connected to the multicultural experiences of the author and listening to her has made me feel closer to my own identity. I also got emotional at the end...
I truly recommend this book!
