Piecing Me Together by Renée Watson

4.0

I should have written a review earlier, but I kept holding it off. This book is fantastic. I love writing that dives into what a lot of authors are scared to cover, even in a world where everyone claims to love social justice.

You can feel the desperation of Jade as she wants to make things better for herself but can't throughout the whole story. Following her as she grows in her relationships with others is awesome. The only thing keeping this book from being 5 stars is
Spoiler the weak, cutesy ending. There wasn't good closure on Jade and Sam's relationship. I wish we could have at least gotten an epilogue where Jade was traveling abroad.


Other than that, great book.
