“An absolute must read.” \u2015Buzzfeed<\/p>\n

“A gripping portrayal of the South’s inherent racism and a love story for queer Black girls.” \u2015Teen Vogue<\/p>\n

Family secrets, a swoon-worthy romance, and a slow-burn mystery collide in We Deserve Monuments, the award-winning debut novel from Jas Hammonds. <\/p>\n

What\u2019s more important: Knowing the truth or keeping the peace?<\/p>\n

Seventeen-year-old Avery Anderson is convinced her senior year is ruined when she’s uprooted from her life in DC and forced into the hostile home of her terminally ill grandmother, Mama Letty. The tension between Avery\u2019s mom and Mama Letty makes for a frosty arrival and unearths past drama they refuse to talk about. Every time Avery tries to look deeper, she\u2019s turned away, leaving her desperate to learn the secrets that split her family in two.<\/p>\n

While tempers flare in her avoidant family, Avery finds friendship in unexpected places: in Simone Cole, her captivating next-door neighbor, and Jade Oliver, daughter of the town\u2019s most prominent family\u2015whose mother\u2019s murder remains unsolved.<\/p>\n

As the three girls grow closer\u2015Avery and Simone\u2019s friendship blossoming into romance\u2015the sharp-edged opinions of their small southern town begin to hint at something insidious underneath. The racist history of Bardell, Georgia is rooted in Avery\u2019s family in ways she can\u2019t even imagine. With Mama Letty’s health dwindling every day, Avery must decide if digging for the truth is worth toppling the delicate relationships she’s built in Bardell\u2015or if some things are better left buried.<\/p>\n
