Book #8 Read in 2019
Pride by Ibi Zoboi
This is a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and is well done. It was a bit slow to start, so I don't know how many of high school readers would stick with it. Set in neighborhood near Brooklyn, there is a girl who thinks that the Darcy boys are too rich for her neighborhood. The Darcy boy thinks her family are money grubbers. And star-crossed lovers happen. It has romance, interesting characters and a relevant comment on society.
