Review:

I really liked this book! It was a cute romance that is talked about feminism and touched on racism. It was really cool to read about someone who stood for what she believed in and didn’t wait for other people's approval. I also really liked the idea of the daily bugle and reading about a school newspaper. It was really fun to read about that kind of journalistic story that I read much of. A cute and sweet romance that reminds me of when I first started reading romance. This was a really good book, and I think I would reread it!

Trigger Warnings:
sexism (challenged) and racism (challenged)

Synopsis From Book:

Eliza Quan is the perfect candidate for editor in chief of her school paper. That is, until ex-jock Len DiMartile decides on a whim to run against her. Suddenly her vast qualifications mean squat because inexperienced Len—who is tall, handsome, and male—just seems more like a leader. When Eliza’s frustration spills out in a viral essay, she finds herself inspiring a feminist movement she never meant to start, caught between those who believe she’s a gender equality champion and others who think she’s simply crying misogyny. Amid this growing tension, the school asks Eliza and Len to work side by side to demonstrate civility. But as they get to know one another, Eliza feels increasingly trapped by a horrifying realization—she just might be falling for the face of the patriarchy himself.
