The Exact Opposite of Okay by Laura Steven

4.0

Im going to begin by saying wow, what a cover. Its just so beautiful and full of colour. This book definatley gave an insight into what school especially secondary or high school is like when it comes to friendships and bullying. The main character Izzy is well developed and strong. She gives off strong feminist views and points which makes this book a good book for a feminist person to read as I feel that they can relate well to her as a character and an individual. As I read the book I found that this book covers a wide range of issues that are in our society today such as slut shaming, the concept of being friend zoned, Revenge porn, sexuality, religious views and money issues. I feel that this book is a must read for readers who love diversity. This book was also very emotional in how we saw how much izzy was affected by the outcomes that she couldn’t even go to her teachers for help against it.

I gave this book 4 stars as I loved how diverse it was, however there was something missing which I cant put my finger on
