13 Must-Read Young Adult Novels by Latinx Authors

Yes, Elizabeth Acevedo is on the list again! And we stan for all her books including With The Fire on High, which we're not detailing here, but you should read anyway. But, let's talk about Clap When You Land ($19). This one is the author's latest, and arguably one of her most gut-wrenching. It's about a teenager growing up in the Dominican Republic who devastatingly finds out that her father who lives in the US has been killed in a plane crash. Little does she know, though, that he left her a sister that she never knew about in New York City.
