I was glad you referenced Lydia Kang's book! I actually know her--she also writes young adult fiction (which is not to say that her nonfiction is fantasy). Also, on an unrelated note: It was great seeing you at the reunion, John McCray. John Lehr, you need to come to the next one!
Claire thank you!! Human number 1 reported an excellent conversation at the reunion and I, Human number 2, will take your advice on the next one! We would love to get your email to discuss Ms. Kange and many other things! Please reach out to: anthrowith2humans@gmail.com
