A review by overthinkereading
Why We Fly by Gilly Segal, Kimberly Jones

3.5

I really enjoyed this YA novel that explored deep and pertinent topics facing today's teens: evolving friendships, relationships and sex, participating in social justice, overbearing parents, racism, consequences, self care (physical and mental), and the pressure of navigating their own futures. I especially appreciated the representation of cheerleaders as MORE than just cute girls without depth.
