Review of Does My Body Offend You? by Mayra Cuevas & Marie Marquardt

 This book is hands down one of the best that I have read in 2022! It may be listed as YA, but I think even adults need to read this one.

A timely story of two teenagers who discover the power of friendship, feminism, and standing up for what you believe in, no matter where you come from. A collaboration between two gifted authors writing from alternating perspectives, this compelling novel shines with authenticity, courage, and humor.
