Kim's Reviews > Lo Simpson Starts a Revolution

3.5 rounded up to 4.
12-year-old middle schooler Lo doesn’t understand why her best friend Jazz is in such a hurry to use makeup and wear bras and kiss boys— Lo isn’t a fan of leaving childhood behind. But when she comes face to face with misogyny and inequities at school, she realizes that maybe growing up means speaking out. And she discovers she has a lot to say.
Enjoyed so much about this book, but some of the situations were definitely far-fetched (looking at you, boys in the cafeteria harassing girls with condoms blown up into balloons with nary an adult in sight). And the resolution was very neat.
Still, an engaging story with relatable characters.
