I found the Night Gardener to be amazing; but I'm also curious about The Fourteenth Goldfish and Brown Girl Dreaming.

Fourteenth Goldfish and Brown Girl Dreaming were incredible! Brown Girl Dreaming is my favorite so far. I am enjoying Night Gardener now!
I've read all of these already. Brown Girl Dreaming was my favorite, by far! Absolutely Almost was excellent. I liked The Fourteenth Goldfish and The Night Gardener. The other two were only okay.
Really excited to read BROWN GIRL DREAMING. Just finishing THE NIGHT GARDENER and thought it was excellent!
I've heard amazing things about Brown Girl Dreaming: question - do you shelve it as fiction or NF? I know elements are fictionalized. Our copy hasn't come in yet (still on order)so I haven't had a chance to look in person
I put it in fiction with the other Woodsons because I figured that is the place where folks will find it easier. Not that it is going to have a chance to sit there long! I've been nagging people to read this baby since I read the arc. Once you read it, you will, too! This is incredible!It was my first choice for Newbery by far until last night when I finished The Mad Man of Piney Woods from Christopher Paul Curtis. It. Was. Amazing!
Now I am torn!
