Just Sayin': My Life In Words by Malorie Blackman

challenging emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

I absolutely loved this book!!! It was beautifully written. At times I felt like I just wanted to hug Malorie Blackman. I had to put the book down a few times to sit with my emotions. There were sections in the book which left me feeling such rage at how Ms Blackman was treated!!! I’m a similar age to her and I also believed that racism would flounder and die out; racism just makes absolutely no sense to me. 
I already hugely admired Ms Blackman, but I finished this book just in awe of her!!! I think I’d be totally tongue tied if ever I met her 😂
