Where I can find books by African American young adults?
I'm looking for a book that tells the story a young person and their tests and tribulations of the "bell" or "projects", so where I can find a list of them? I do not want a pound of Grade 6, ie I want a book as the year 12 .. or something that relates to reality in the chapel.
