Love Is a Revolution by Renée Watson

4.0

I give this one 4.5 stars! First, who doesn’t love a good Renée Watson book? Second, the story was cute and overall relatable.

I’ll start by saying Nala did get on my nerves! I related to her so much and thought she was a good person in the beginning then she kept on lying, and kept on lying, and KEPT ON LYING. I was yelling at my book every time she had the opportunity to tell the truth and wouldn’t.

I will say, however, that I wanted more from a couple of the side characters. We didn’t get much from the other kids in Inspire Harlem. And I desperately wanted a little bit (holds fingers apart with a little sliver of space) more from her mother.

Other than that, I loved this book.
