if you want an alternative to Harry Potter I HIGHLY recommend Chronicles of Ancient Darkness by Michelle Paver. Set in Paleolithic Northern Europe, it focuses on a brown-skinned Inuit coded boy named Torak trying to make a life for himself after his father’s death. It’s incredibly well researched (Paver corresponded with actual hunter-gatherer communities prior to writing) has excellent prose and is generally a great read. Check it out if you have the time!
