It’s not something I’d given much thought to previously, but I now realize my reading habits have been lacking. . . What I enjoyed most was how becoming a Lady Lion challenged Kayla’s views on feminism. . .

I know what ya mean about non-caucasian protagonists. Bi-racial mainstream books are trying to make in-roads into the YA market (which is close to my heart since my own teen daughters are bi-racial). Justina Chen Headley (Girl Overboard) also wrote another great book called "Nothing But the Truth (and a Few White Lies), which features a bi-racial heroine. Wonder if you read that one? Hi Jia,
