Genesis Begins AgainRecommendations
About the book
This powerful debut novel tells the story of a thirteen-year-old who must confront internalized racism and a verbally abusive family to learn to love herself. Genesis is determined to fix her family, even if it means harming herself in the process. But when she starts to find things to like about herself, she discovers that changing her own attitude is the first step toward helping others. The book has been called one of the best ever by Colby Sharp of Nerdy Book Club, and reminiscent of Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye by The New York Times.
