Mirror Girls By Kelly McWilliams Cover Image

Mirror Girls (Hardcover)

By Kelly McWilliams
$17.99

Williams' page-turning historical fiction with a dollop of magic set mainly in circa- 1953 Georgia  will give you a true view of life from both a (passing) white & black perspective, as the story is about twins separated at birth. One can easily feel the horror of Jim Crow south  and the shameful racial injustices blacks endured. Both twin characters are equally well developed and your heart will long for redemption.

(YA Historical Fiction, ages 14+) - Reviewed by Maureen
