The past few months for me since November’s election results in the US have been a time of feeling bewildered, confused, angry, despondent and fiercely determined. Reading has been a way to make sense of my confusion, and here are four books that have helped me make sense of the world.

These four books are:

1. Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi
2. The Good Immigrant, edited by Nikesh Shukla
3. The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon
4. Three Daughters of Eve by Elif Shafak

Watch the video below for my take-aways from each book!
