One Of Our Kind

Beskrivelse

Nicola Yoon, bestselling author of The Sun Is Also a Star and Everything, Everything, delivers her first adult novel with a gripping story set in a seemingly perfect community. When Jasmyn and King move to Liberty, California, hoping for a supportive environment for their growing family, they quickly discover that the town isn’t quite what it seems.

A suspenseful exploration of community, identity, and the cost of true liberation.

Jasmyn Williams and her husband King are expecting their second child and decide to relocate to Liberty, California, a town with a majority-Black population where they hope to raise their family among like-minded people. King quickly adapts to the town’s lifestyle, especially enjoying the luxurious wellness center that serves as the community’s hub.

However, Jasmyn finds it harder to fit in. She anticipated meeting passionate liberals and activists fighting for racial equality, but instead, she encounters residents more invested in spa appointments and avoiding the world’s problems. As her pregnancy progresses, Jasmyn uncovers a chilling secret that shifts her frustration into fear.

This revelation threatens not only her family’s safety but also challenges everything she stands for. Tense and thought-provoking, One of Our Kind is a thrilling novel filled with sharp social commentary, showcasing Nicola Yoon’s storytelling at its finest.
