The bestselling and award-winning author of The Skin I'm In and The Life I'm In returns with a novel that explores the complex relationships between Black boys and their fathers, and what it truly means to be a man. Sharon G. Flake's groundbreaking novel The Skin I'm In ushered in a new voice that lit up the literary landscape and became a modern classic, passed down through generations. The Life I'm In, its sequel, furthered the power of unmistakable voices, opening the hearts and minds of teens everywhere. Now The Family I'm In presents John-John and Caleb, friends since childhood who have come face-to-face with the struggles and triumphs of growing into young men. They're living in a world where many Black boys are up against generational expectations, fears of the future, and how to navigate being "nice" kids who just want to be seen for who they are. Together, Caleb and John-John work through family illness, divorced parents, teachers who ask hard questions, and girls who think they have all the answers.
