Alicia D. William’s deeply sensitive and powerful award-winning debut novel, Genesis Begins Again, tells the story of a thirteen-year-old who must overcome internalized racism and a verbally abusive family to finally learn to love herself. Genesis, a relatable and sympathetic protagonist, keeps a list of 96 things she hates about herself as she navigates her new school and a complicated home life. What will happen when she reaches 100 things on her list? Older middle-grade readers in particular will empathize with Genesis’ emotional, painful, yet ultimately hopeful journey in this powerful and compelling coming-of-age story.
