OLDER FICTION
Reynolds, Marilyn

If You Loved Me

(3) YA True-to-Life Series from Hamilton High series. Reynolds's story of a biracial teenage girl grappling with the issue of whether or not to have sex distinguishes itself from other novels of this ilk with its heroine's uniquely complicated life and strong, believable voice. Lauren's long-simmering rage against her drug-addicted late mother colors all her relationships, making it difficult for her to forgive anyone who hurts her, including her boyfriend.
