brittmariasbooks 's review for:

Black Enough by Ibi Zoboi
4.0

Black Enough is a short story collection with stories about all kinds of black teens. As with all anthologies, I liked some stories better than others. I particularly liked Oreo by Brandy Colbert and Kissing Sarah Smart by Justina Ireland.

Personally, I recommend reading some of the other reviews by other readers because some of them really go into depth about each story.
