(4) YA Sharp Sisters series. African American sisters--biological and adopted--experience gritty truths about their world when their father runs for mayor of Charlotte, North Carolina. The teens grapple with issues of ethics and compassion, such as sensitivity about domestic violence and homelessness in their school. At times racy, the relatable, true-to-life (sometimes didactic) hi/lo series challenges stereotypes of urban African American young women. Review covers these Sharp Sisters titles: Better Than Picture Perfect, Icing on the Cake, Make Something Of It, Truth and Nothing But, and Turn Up for Real.
