A review by mrjess_bhs
My Life as an Ice Cream Sandwich by Ibi Zoboi

3.0

I think this rating comes down to me just not enjoying the story and main character. Zoboi is a brilliant writer, and she navigates some great issues and family/social dynamics in this, but they don’t feel fully explored. The main character’s childishness ranges from adorable to dangerous. Her choice and deception afterwards led to a severed family relationship and likely criminal record for her father, but the gravity of that is glossed over.
