BOOK DEETS:
▫️MARY JANE | YA
▫️Author: Jessica Anya Blau @jessicaanyablau
▫️Publisher: Custom House Books @customhousebooks
▫️Audiobook: @harperaudio @harlequin_audio
▫️Goodreads rating: 4.19
▫️My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mary Jane is a coming of age story, it’s a story of the impact of representation and diverse perspectives and experiences. Mary Jane is a 14 yo growing up in a segregated Baltimore in the 70s to conservative Christian parents (insert everything that goes with that)...she spends her days as the summer nanny for a family very different from her own. I loved Mary Jane's POV and seeing the world through her eyes, I liked the character development and how we can see her question the ways of and views/beliefs of her family when confronted with a different way of thinking and living.
CW: Racism, Antisemitism, Sexism, Addiction, Drugs
Thanks @harperaudio @harlequin_audio for the ALC in exchange for my honest review.
