Love is a Revolution by Renee Watson


 Nala lives with her cousin-sister-friend, Imani, and her family.  Imani is all into community activist groups and Nala is just not into that.  Through Imani's group Nala meets Tye, and she falls hard.  So hard that she starts making up things about herself to make him like her.  Things like she volunteers at her grandmother's retirement home as an activity director, that she is a vegetarian, and she starts changing things about herself to make him like her.  Soon enough her lies catch up to her.  Nala learns that she is good enough as herself and she learns that she has to know who she is and accept herself first.
