Betty by Tiffany McDaniel

emotional sad medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

This falls in the niche genre that is “the authors love letter to their mother knowing they may never read it”. 
This book is here for all the female relationships one will have as a child and how these shape you and can almost break you. I am emotionally devastated
