This is the story of Nala, who compared to her young-activist cousin, just wants to chill this summer and have fun. When she meets Tye, another young-activist and her cousin's friend, she falls for him and in an attempt to impress him, tells a few...un-truths.

This story is about Nala and Tye and their relationship, but also about Nala and her relationship with herself, and her family.

I thought this was a nice story - I think I would have loved reading this when I was 15ish, so absolutely would recommend this for young teens.

The writing was a little young for me, which meant I didn't love it but I liked the structure of the writing and how you could get a lot of Nala's personality from that. I did like some of the commentary, and the message of the book is something I can get behind.

Overall, this was a little too young for me, but I really liked the messaging and think this would be a good story for a young teen to read.

Finally: kids, don't lie just to impress someone you have a crush on! It never works out!
