Adversity
Well written and complex novel about the intersection of race, class, gender, and ethnicity. Even though its set almost 50 years ago it has a lot of relatable middle school coming of age moments.
teen realistic fiction (Muslim teen caught up in anti-terrorist surveillance that focuses on Muslim communities in recent NYC).
This isn't really a suspense/thriller that you might expect from the cover--it's a pretty quiet story (since Muslim communities are just ordinary communities) with mostly inner dialogue/introspection and very little conflict/action at all except for the main character's moral dilemma that he faces towards the end. There are so very few American-published books to be found with Muslim characters, however, that this ended up on my radar.

An excellent look at the prejudice shown to POC in America. Also spotlights issues with police pressuring POC to spy on one another. Very "Big Brother" feeling!
