Review: Patina

Patina by Jason Reynolds
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 out of 5 stars - If you ask me, I'll tell you to read it.

I really enjoyed listening to this book. It's a story for all those who have felt they needed to grow up too soon and take on the responsibilities of the adults in their world.

Patina (Patty) has been doing her best to take care of her little sister and her mother since her father died when she was 6. She has felt that it is her responsibility to make her everyone is cared for, even after her aunt and uncle adopted her and her sister.

Patty learns that it's a team effort, but that it doesn't (and shouldn't) all fall on her shoulders.
