lizshayne 's review for:

Yesterday Is History by Kosoko Jackson
4.0
emotional hopeful fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

his book reminded me a lot of Casey McQuiston's more recent stuff, which is a good thing, and I just really appreciated both how absurdly adorable Dre et. al. were and how Jackson made his characters feel real and embody their identities while still telling a story that is about them as people and not as IDENTITIES. Being a fully realized character without being a in a very special episode.

Anyway, I'm a sucker for good time travel and happy endings and this book delivers.

The moral of this story is that I should keep getting my book recommendations from Twitter.
