So I got a pass today but the agent said that even with the great qualities/voice, she felt it would be too difficult to sell my book. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Gesicht mit rollenden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit rollenden Augen"> Then I started thinking. Does YA Sci-Fi really exist? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht"> I& #39;m not sure.

If so, what are some recent YA Sci-Fi books that you guys love?
As a kid, I loved Sci-Fi but no one in those books ever looked like me. That& #39;s why I write it now. I guarantee there are Black and Brown kids who want to read Sci-Fi & see themselves in it. I know there are white kids who want/need to read stories about BIPOC kids. Do they exist?
