Love Is a Revolution by Renée Watson
4.0
lighthearted reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

What I loved most about this book is the message. While at first glance, it just seems like a romance, most of the book is about Nala finding herself and figuring out how to love herself. I loved Nala's character journey throughout the book, as it felt realistic and true. The pacing throughout the book was on point and Watson's writing, as always, feels effortless.
