Piecing Me Together
by Renée Watson
Jade Butler was taught to take all the opportunities she is awarded. That she has, but why does she feel so out of place at a private school that she received a bursary to attend. Why is it when she joins the woman to woman program (Mrs Parker) suggested she feels like they want to "fix" girls from the bad neighborhoods.
Both Jade and her mentor have to learn things about each other even when they are bumping heads. This book follows Jade on a journey of race, history, politics and finding her own voice within and outside of the black community.
This is really one of those profound books where you sit back and think WOW! It's written with such warmth and depth.
