Author: Renée Watson

Series or standalone: standalone

Publication year: 2021

Genres: fiction, romance, contemporary, coming of age

Blurb: When Nala Robertson reluctantly agrees to attend an open mic night for her cousin/sister/friend Imani's birthday, she finds herself falling in instant love with Tye Brown, the MC. He's perfect, except...Tye is an activist spending the summer putting on events for the community, when Nala would rather watch movies and try out the new seasonal flavours at the local creamery. In order to impress Tye, Nala tells a few tiny lies to have enough in common with him. As they spend more time together, sharing more of themselves, some of those lies get harder to keep up. As Nala falls deeper into keeping up her lies and into love, she'll learn all the ways love is hard, and how self-love is revolutionary.

If you want to ban uplifting stories with people of color, just say that. Based on this list, my office library is in complete violation. 🤷🏾‍♀️😂 Oh well. All of my students love the books that I share with them. Especially the ones that they do not normally get to see. 🤓📚

I think maybe things will get better and better from here.

This story is so well done. Covering a range of topics like body image and racism, this book at once swept me off my feet while being informative. There are several topics in this book I will never fully understand, but the general idea of love is something I think we all can grasp. Also, the idea of finding oneself is beautifully illustrated in this.

Out May 7, 2024!

Thank you, Netgalley and Publisher, for this Arc!

REVIEW: LOVE IS A REVOLUTION BY RENÉE WATSON

I support women’s rights, but I also support women’s wrongs.

Love Is A Revolution is full of women’s wrongs, and I’ve chosen to stand by Nala Robertson every step of the way. Nala makes a lot of bad decisions and quite frankly, I was taken aback at how quickly she spun her web of lies. The only honest thing she said in those first few minutes of meeting Tye was her name.

Lying about being an activist to impress a guy? Questionable, but understandable. Lying about being a vegetarian? Really, Nala?

Why is comic book media obsessed with making characters journalists when they weren’t ever journalists? First MJ on multiple occasions (Insomniac games and the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon) and now Renee Montoya in the Caped Crusader series
