We Are Not Okay by Natália Gomes
3.0

This was an enjoyable read, and it does have some important messages to everyone about bullying.

The one thing that i did take from it all is that i'm so glad that i am not still in school, as kids are just HORRID!

Told from the POV of 4 girls, this story interweaves itself with the 'growing up' of kids in high school, the bullying, fat shaming, victim shaming, slut shaming, religion shaming, and every other shaming that you can think of.

Throughout the book, i think that Ulana was the only 'grown up' in the whole bunch of the girls, and i'm so glad that social media wasn't around when i was that age!
