While there isn’t any gore in Nicola Yoon’s newest novel, One of Our Kind, it’s definitely a horror story.
When a Black family moves to a wealthy neighborhood made up of only Black residents, protagonist Jasmyn feels a sense of relief that she doesn’t have to worry about her young son navigating life as a minority in this Black utopia. But that relief is short-lived, as Jasmyn realizes there's something a bit suspect about the community.
