Why read it?
1 author picked Forever Is Now as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I was deeply moved by this poetic in-verse novel that compassionately addresses harsh realities like coping with mounting stress and being a Black teen in America.
I felt a strong connection to the characters, who were well-developed and authentic, particularly the protagonist grappling with agoraphobia. The conversations about mental health were a nuanced and vulnerable exploration of expectations imposed on Black people dealing with mental health challenges.
From Sydney's list on YA with disability and/or mental health rep.
