This book is a good, well rounded take on the #MeToo movement for a young adult audience. As a journalist, some suspension of disbelief was required as things jus wouldn't progress like that in real life but I understand it is fiction and the genre doesn't really lend itself to being too accurate on all those boring details. I loved the complexities of Josie and the diversity found throughout the book, goes to show its not hard to just write characters that are reflective of our diverse world.
