Hey yall! I have a book recommendation and it's titled "Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson. It's a powerful and absolutely amazing book!! It's about a girl, who learns to speak up. I know my description is vague but trust me it's a great read! Also, Anderson is an awesome author, who also wrote "Fever 1793", which I definitely recommend! Happy reading!
