4.0

Wonderful contemporary Aussie YA about the changes in friendships and the places we call home, grief, discovery, casual racism, and road trips in dodgy cars.

i love poppy nwosu’s books because they make me feel normal for living in urban-ish australia, not like i have to stretch to try and relate to an outback story so far away from my reality or suspend my disbelief entirely to try and follow an american one. it all feels super real, like these are things that actually happen.
