Tiffany D Jackson is such a damn good writer. The way she writes characters, their relationships, unspoken but understood tension- it’s so brilliant. Let Me Hear a Rhyme has a bit more adventure woven into the plot compared to Monday’s Not Coming and Grown. The subject matter is still serious and the stakes are high, but it feels a bit more light hearted, if that makes any sense.

Anyways, I really liked this book. The narrator for Jasmine wasn’t my favorite, but Jasmine was my favorite character. Also, wow the 90s is considered historical fiction I am old.
