Wow! I flew through this book and I am so loving how Ya and teen books are now being written!
This book focuses on a girl who is a pastors daughter who has always been told sex is bad, has a boyfriend and is seen as a ‘good Christian’. However, there is so much more than that. This book is about self growth, female empowerment, being the master of your own body, sex education, sex positivity, positive and healthy relationships with partners and family alike. It’s about trust, and being no one but yourself and be I afraid to say what you need and do what you want.
This book is a book that I wish was around years before. It is so refreshing to read and so positive. Honestly, I am in awe. All girls and boys should read this, even grown adults who may never think of picking this book up. It has so much value for all women (and men). These things need to be spoke about more and gosh that ending! Honestly trying not to spoil the book but women looking out for each other and ahhhh I love it!
