Every Variable of Us

Winner of more than five literary awards including being voted one of The New York Public Library’s Best YA Books of 2022, Every Variable of Us follows Philly teenager Alexis Duncan, who after getting injured in a gang shooting is forced to place her promising basketball career on hold. At the urging of new Indian student (and crush) Aamani, Alexis shifts her focus to the school’s STEM team in hopes of earning a college scholarship, but gains more than she could’ve imagined.


"The author doesn’t shy away from showing truths about how poverty affects people, especially in Black communities . . . Raw and authentic." —Kirkus Reviews


 "This is a powerful story, well-written and heartfelt. Be sure to keep a hanky close by." —Children's Literature
