readwithna 's review for:

If You Come Softly by Jacqueline Woodson
2.0

The relevance of certain books seem to have more to do with the time in which it came out rather than excellence in terms of form or content, and 'If You Come Softly' is one of those. Certainly a fun-to-read tale of young love, and race in America, but having read Angie Thomas' 'The Hate You Give', and other similar works, this one left me underwhelmed.
