Just Lizzie by Karen Wilfrid
5.0
emotional inspiring medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Loveable characters: Yes

This book was so good 😭 like middle school me needed this book so much and this just made 13-14 year old me so happy and also emotional! The fact that Lizzie, while she was still really learning about herself, felt so confident in who she was once she read about asexuality was so beautiful and I am just so happy that kids these days have representation like this. Like when I say books change lives, this is the kind of thing I mean! I can just imagine a preteen feeling completely lost and alone finding this book and being able to see themselves in it and it’s able to make them feel less alone and it really just brings me so much joy! I just really loved this!
