Books like these remind me why I love YA lit.
Jo deeply stressed me out at times, but I couldn't help but care and root for her (and deeply hate every adult in her life who failed her). This book had such a strong voice, and I haven't been so engrossed in a book in a long time. I wish I had this book in high school, and I'm so excited to add this book to my library's collection. I hope it finds someone who needs it.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC, and to Meredith for sharing this with the world.
