The Moulite sisters have done it again. This story was so powerful, beautifully written, and deeply moving. One of the Good Ones tackles important social issues like police brutality, racism, and family grief with so much care. The characters felt real, the twists kept me hooked, and the message will stay with me. The premise of “being one of the good ones” is something we hear far too often when discussing Black lives, and this book challenges that idea in such a thoughtful way. A must-read that will stay in my heart and mind for a while.

This was my second book by Ibi Zoboi, I truly enjoy her writing style. This story had me hooked from start to finish and took me through a whirlwind of emotions. This book will have you going through Fabiola’s journey, from leaving Haiti, and being separated from her mother, to the culture shock of living in Detroit. With the heart breaking story of love, family, lost, belonging and beliefs, this felt so real and powerful. The drama and raw glimpse into street life added intensity and depth to the story. I highly recommend this one!

The mix of real life social issues, mystery, and supernatural stuff made it a pretty interesting read. The book kept me guessing the whole time trying to figure out who was involved, and what was really going on. The supernatural twist caught me off guard at first, but it worked and added to the tension.

Really enjoyed Dear Haiti, Love Alaine! She was so real and very funny. The diary, emails, news article format was different but I enjoyed it. Maybe because I’m a little nosey and it felt like I was peeking into her life! 🤣 I loved the way Haiti was described, and I could really picture the scenery. The touch of magic, and all the family drama, had me wanting to know more. I couldn’t put the book down. Overall a great read!
