Such A Fun Age by Kiley Reid

At first, I thought this would be another story about racial differences between a nanny and employer but SUCH A FUN AGE is so much more. Emira is young, smart and doesn't really know what she wants from her life. She works several jobs all without benefits but her favorite is as a part-time nanny to a wonderfully goofy little girl while her self-absorbed mom writes a book, social media platform and handles her newborn. After a strange racial incident, Emira meets a good looking white guy who is as different from anyone else she has dated or known. Life is good for Emira until the Thanksgiving dinner she and her boyfriend are invited to and it is discovered that her boyfriend and her boss dated badly in high school. Emira doesn't know who to trust or telling the truth except for Briar, her young charge. This book is about race and all its misconceptions but it is also about searching to find yourself and live up to everyone else's expectations. It will make you think about how we see people, especially those who work for us and who we work for. Stereotypes, misconceptions and pure magic! Perfect for fans of LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE and NINE PERFECT STRANGERS.
