Luster

If there’s one book everyone is talking about this month, it’s LUSTER by Raven Leilani. This debut novel follows a young black book editor who moves in with her older boyfriend and his wife (both white) and their adopted black daughter. The book is a self-aware and frank exploration of sexuality, racial dynamics in the workplace, and millennial angst. If you’re looking for a brief escape into other peoples’ problems, I highly recommend checking it out.
