Thanks to NetGalley for the eARC of Heroes Like Us: Two Stories. I remember reading Boy at the Back of the Class by Onjali Q. Rauf years ago and enjoying it very much so I was excited to learn there was a short story extending his tale. Maybe it's because I hadn't reconnected with the characters in many years, but I didn't really get engrossed in the short story, The Day We Met the Queen. I did, however, really enjoy the second story in the book, The Great Food Bank Heist, a tale about friends who attempt to identify and thwart some thieves.
