![]() ![]() Harry Potter was my childhood, and I’m really struggling to reconcile that love with the things that JK Rowling says now, so anytime I see a fantasy series that is HP-akin but inclusive, I sprint to it. Plus, Amari is the start to a fantasy series that has been comp’d to Harry Potter. Also, it’s blurbed by Angie Thomas and Nic Stone, who are both great. For one thing, look at the gorgeous cover. I haven’t been reading a whole lot of juvenile fiction since I left my library job three years ago, but Amari called to me. I’m planning to reread Thomas’ The Hate U Give post- Concrete Rose, but I definitely need to do better. I started the month with Angie Thomas’ Concrete Rose, and I just finished Amari and the Night Brothers by B.B. Here we are, two-thirds of the way through Black History Month and I’ve only read two books by Black authors. I always intend to theme my reading a bit more, and I always do a terrible job of it. ![]()
