Disclaimer: I received an advance reader copy of Juliet Takes a Breath by Gabby Rivera through BookishFirst.
Juliet Takes a Breath covers some very tough topics that are very important to be talked about. It covers LGBTQ and POC issues that are prevalent in society that many white people do not fully understand, which includes me.
Juliet, who is from the Bronx, takes an internship with feminist author Harlowe Brisbane in Portland, OR and is confronted with issues that she doesn't really know how to deal with at first. During her summer in Portland, she learns and grows in her understanding of who she is and how she identifies as a queer Latina within her own world and family.
This is a must read and highly recommend it!
