If you're looking for a book with commentary about how messed up the government agencies in the United States are and/or why the empowerment of youth (especially BIPOC youth) is crucial, this is the book for you. I enjoyed this title a lot more than I thought I was going to. It actually almost received a five-star rating from me, but I was left wanting more spy/secret agent action within the plot. Yolanda, the main character, joins the FBI as a lawyer. She is sent back to her college town as a spy to keep an eye on a "black extremist group" that is advocating for climate change and racial justice. However, the more time she spends with the group, Yolanda begins to realize that the FBI may have ulterior motives for keeping tabs on them. Overall, this story is a quick read and touches on some really important topics. I encourage you to pick this one up once it is published.
