And for once a parent in YA actually gave meaningful and relevant advice. Jade's relationship with her uncle E. J. was so sweet!

There is no romance! That's right you heard me, a contemporary without romance. While it isn't impossible it's quite rare. Jade does make mention off maybe dating and getting married. Right now Jade remains focused on her life and school. I really appreciated this! everything from the plot to the characters to the writing felt one dimensional. there was so much potential, but unfortunately it fell flat for me. it wasn't necessarily that I couldn't relate to the characters or story- but that I never felt a connection. there was nothing for me latch on to. I am largely a character driven reader, but if there is pretty prose or an engaging plot I can typically still enjoy the story. Unfortunately, this book didn't deliver on any of those fronts for me. It felt slow and quiet- the best way I can put it. As soon as I finished the book I forget everything that happened.All applications will be reviewed by the ICI-Steering Committee and the relevant chapter chair.

I don't know what's worse. Being mistreated because of the color of your skin, your size, or having to prove that it really happened.” Overall I loved Piecing Me Together. It was a beautiful, inspiring read. I will definitely read more of Renee Watson's work in the future. And also the beautiful cover!! Through her mother's encouragement Jade has taken every opportunity her school has offered. The latest opportunity is Woman to Woman. A mentorship program. Jade is initially reluctant to accept. Jade feels that she won't gain anything from it, and it's not really for her. Until her guidance counselor mentions that if Jade completes the program then she'll receive a scholarship for any university in her area. Naturally Jade accepts. Throughout the book Jade learns more about speaking up, and gains some vital experiences. Within a chapter or two I was already attached to the main character. She is so well written you can feel every one of her struggles as if they’re yours. I related so hard my words are all gone. Also, I empathized with this book on such a level that I don’t know how to really explain my thoughts. Piecing Me Together takes place in Portland, Oregon, where I used to live so I really enjoyed this book. I haven't read a lot of books set in Portland. But, it's always cool to read a book that mentions places that you've been or that you have memories of.which immediately sold parts of ICI to Henkel and integrated ICI's remaining operations within its existing organisation.

Though this book was a little shaky and precious in some parts, I'm rounding up because it was fun. This book takes some very necessary steps in that direction. It's also a powerful coming-of-age story, made easy to read in one sitting by the author's engaging style. Highly recommended for YA Contemporary fans. I know something happens between the time our mothers and fathers and teachers and mentors send us out into the world telling us, "The world is yours," and "You are beautiful," and "You can be anything," and the time we return to them.
