Young adult literary fiction for teens struggling with racial and cultural identity and racism.<\/em><\/p>\n

The thing about secrets is they force you to choose\u2014especially the ones that hurt so much you keep them from your best friend. Ava Ling Magee hopes college will free her from the past: high school, parents, everything. Freedom from her Asian mother’s control, her Caucasian father’s neglect, and the world’s confusion, however, requires more than a dorm room. Sure, she makes new friends, separates herself from the parental units, and parties. Yet, Ava’s secrets linger, binding her to the past and cleaving her in two. She must choose between the darkness she knows and unknown perils. Sometimes, when life hurts the most, we discover our freedom lay within all along.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
