If I Was Your Girl

[Meredith Russo] so vibrantly illustrates Amanda's life with delicate, achingly beautiful words. And keep in mind: this is only Russo's first novel; if there's any justice in the world, we're all witnessing a YA powerhouse in the making. * Kirkus *
A wonderful, warm hearted novel about realising who you really are and knowing you deserve to be loved for it. * Inis Reading Guide *
A beautifully, authentically told #ownvoices story of a trans girl trying to hide her past in a new school. While the author admits to oversimplifying the trans experience to make Amanda's story more relatable to cis audiences, this doesn't stop this being an important and relatable book * LGBT YA Reviews *
A coming-of-age with real world gravitas and a love story with heart. Will not only keep readers hooked, it will make the world a better, more empathetic place. * Adi Alsaid, author of Let's Get Lost *
A fantastic addition to contemporary YA and also LGBTQIA YA and I'll be looking out for Meredith Russo's next book in future. If you love coming-of-age stories that talk about family, friendship and first love, then you shouldn't miss this one! * QueerYA *
