As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

White Like Her by Gail Lubasik
A deeply personal story, the author does research when she finds out years later her mother had been hiding a big secret, that she was black with light skin. Her father never knew. Why? What is her family story. Gail is a mystery writer, now she applies her research skills and finds out a lot about her family based on research, interviews and putting it all together. A good read and a good audio book. I learned a lot about a different time and a different part of the world.
