Check out my full video review: https://youtu.be/cbI5v3pSxXA

Race to the Sun follows Nizhoni Begay, a girl with Navajo heritage and with the ability to see monsters. She and her brother are the legendary Hero Twins, and when their father is kidnapped and a monster with the name of Mr. Charles is behind it all…. Nizhoni, Mac (brother) and Davery (bff + alive google) goes out on a mission to reach the House of the Sun, where they will get weapons to defeat monsters!

I love these books, going out on quest with friends, with influences from other cultures and with humor that makes my heart burst. A thing I forgot to mention in my video review is the focus on family and finding our flaws and hurts, and then overcome them. I really enjoyed these themes and how the book carried them + of course the representation (which I spend most of my video review talking about). My only complaint was that the book felt a bit rushed sometimes, and I wish it was longer and not a standalone. This was great, fun and exactly what I expected. 4/5 stars. I just want to go on big adventures and be generally awesome too…
