If you missed the best books last year，there's time to catch up between new releases.
   Four Hundred Souls
   A unique collection，F(xiàn)our Hundred Souls is a new way to learn history.Ninety African American writers each wrote the 400-year history using a five-year period.Each writer chose their own method ranging from short stories to sharp arguments.The works were edited by X.Kendi and N.Blain.Read together，it's a story of history from 1619 told through varying perspectives and styles.
   Set Boundaries，F(xiàn)ind Peace
   From the desk of licensed cousultant and relationship expert Tawwab，Set Boundaries，F(xiàn)ind Peace should be required reading for every people-pleaser.The guide defines the term "healthy boundaries" within the context of real communication and backed by research and best practices in cognitive behavioral therapy （認(rèn)知行為療法）.It is a must-read for the overburdened work- from-home employees always working.
   Harlem Shuffle
   From Pulitzer Prize-winning author Whitehead，Harlem Shuffle is a historical fiction novel set in 1960s Harlem.The initial impression is a crime novel against the background of historic New York City.But as the pages turn，the underlying family story reveals commentary on morality and social power.With the pace of a crime novel and the depth of a psychology essay，it's a book that's sure to keep you going once you get into it.
   The Other Black Girl
   With a television adaptation with Hulu already signed，The Other Black Girl，the first novel from New York author Harris，is set in a shared workplace where two black colleagues face increasingly tense conditions that rapidly threaten more than their careers.The work is quick- paced and surprising the entire way with dark comedy about workplace politics.
