I really don’t know where my rating stands on this one I’m stuck really at a 35 but I’m going to stay at 3 stars While this book really did touch on some good subjects I was either confused or annoyed the other times I was readingTasia character needed a pat on the back while at the same time needed a good slap across the face The way she handled certain situations didn’t really sit well with me I get her whole world collapsed but that really didn’t excuse her actions Especially when it came to the way she was towards her mom Let me talk to you like I would a friend Ya’ll if I talked to my mama like that she would have beat my ass into next week I’m so serious Hell I’m 27 and wouldn’t take that tone with my mama Now this book does talk about topics that need to be talked about Race sexual orientations and sexism All of these are hard to talk about topics but they are done really well What stood out to me the most was that the author mentioned inter racism inside of a culture I have never read about in a book but this is a real thing Especially in the black community Now I’m not mixed race like Tasia but I am what you call a “light skinned black girl” The stereotype in the black community is that lighter skin girlsboys are favored prettier and get opportunities This then causes a rift between the community and you are judged before you even open your mouth “You’re black Okay You know that right Don’t ever let another person tell you you’re not If I’ve learned anything from my parents it’s that all it takes is the smallest percentage and the will to stare the rest of America right in the face You’re Black” So while it’s not going to a favorite of mine it did make me think and it’s going to stay with me for a while The story was good I just felt like the execution needed work Basically I do recommend this even though I’m so torn about it I read an advanced copy of this title The uote was taken from an ARC and is subject to change upon publicationBlog | Instagram | Twitter

DNF page 49I am absolutely not the ideal reader for this book I was sent an unsolicited ARC of this book and despite having a really busy schedule of review copies I reuested lately I wanted to give it a try because I was incredibly appreciative of the publisher sending this to me but I think I'm past the age of being able to deal with cranky YA contemporary protagonists being hateful to their families I get that she's shocked by learning about this big twist in her family but the way she reacts is honestly just irritating
