Pivotal. Emotional. Relevant.

I thought that this book was very entertaining, and it reminded me of those old Disney Channel shows that would come on during Black History Month where like the main character would travel back in time to when the school they attended was segregated. Not saying our main character traveled back in time or anything, but I liked the way the story flipped back and forth between past and present.

The story is very relevant to today, and it's crazy to see the absurd amount of similarities between the 50s and present day racism.

"All You Have to Do" was powerful, heartfelt, and thought-provoking. I think young adults and adults of all ages would enjoy this read. Like I said, it is completely relevant to today's world, but it still has that element of entertainment with a fictional storyline from the past. And the way these two story lines connect was a pivotal moment in the book. Overall, it was an emotional read and I believe anyone would enjoy reading it.
