What's better than an #ownvoices novel? A novel that has six of the most promising and talented black YA authors today. More often than not, when you find a themed collection of stories, they are exactly that-- just a couple of stories put together under one theme. This goes further. It uses the blackout to tie all these different stories together, and bit by bit you realize they all belong in this one group. These different individuals with their own stories and their own voices.
If you haven't read anything of these authors yet, this is an easy step in the world of their writing. Highly recommend.
