The Long Ride by Marina Budhos
5.0
4.5 Stars
Such an amazing book. So much of this book hit home for me. I rarely see mixed-race characters in books, let alone in contemporaries, and because of that I rarely see my own experiences in media. The Long Ride gets it in one, and really shows the challenges of being mixed race in a time/area where it's not seen as normal. It's wonderfully written and a must-read for adults and young readers alike.
