I found it way easy to get tangled re relationships, religion was a key element of the process with me. Infact, I saw the shift happening before my eyes as a teen and it made some of my experiences so much easier knowing my mum was trying to see things through a wider, more understanding lense. like this is something i look for in a ya book, something with plot and something that makes you feel.

I thought I had done as much growing as I could out of purity culture, but this book dug up old toxic roots and slapped me in the face with them in the best way possible. But in doing so, she must face some home truths: maybe she shouldn't be fixing her body to please a boy, maybe Sasha is the friend she needed all along and maybe Reggie isn't so bad at all. I quite literally just finished reading this maybe five minutes ago so this is me rambling, but wow, what a lovely book! As well as her medical diagnosis, I struggle with that as well and it was just really really nice to be seen especially in a black YA romance book. Growing up as a black woman in a religious household, I could relate to a lot of what was written, but to be honest, no matter what your background, this book can be relatable.

Confessions of an Alleged Good Girl follows the teenage daughter of a pastor who is supposed be perfect and wait til she's married to have sex. To win him back Monique plans to resolve the “issue” with help from the only people she can turn to—frenemy (and fellow church girl) Sasha and the town’s resident bad boy Reggie. There is mention of religion as it is a part of the storyline but it is well written and very relevant, especially as the main character Monique is the preacher’s daughter so thinking of having sex is a no no especially before marriage!

I’ve gushed in her inbox so many times about this book that she’s probably sick of me but thank you so much for such an important book.

I knew about vaginismus before, but I had no idea vaginal dilators were a thing, so I learned something new. I absolutely adore how refreshing these books feel to read because the characters are so honest, open, and accepting with one another. The love triangle aspect was interesting but I have to say, the contrast between Monique’s ex-boyfriend Dom and Reggie was a really interesting one and proves that people’s perceptions of others aren’t always accurate. She later finds out that she has vaginismus, and the book sort of becomes an almost fetch quest as she, and two unexpected allies-- sycophantic good girl Sasha and bad boy Reggie-- try to help her "cure" her problem by plying her with erotica, vaginal dilators, and constant instruction on how to train herself.
