- W3008412625 abstract "Reviewed by: Yes No Maybe So by Becky Albertalli Alaine Martaus Albertalli, Becky Yes No Maybe So; by Becky Albertalli and Aisha Saeed. Balzer + Bray, 2020 [448p] Trade ed. ISBN 978-0-06-293704-9 $19.99 E-book ed. ISBN 978-0-06-293705-6 $11.99 Reviewed from galleys R Gr. 9-12 Seventeen-year-olds Jamie Goldberg and Maya Rehman are spending the summer canvassing for the local progressive candidate in a historically red district outside Atlanta, but neither are really in it for the politics. Jamie’s mostly been roped in by his campaign-manager cousin and by his mother; Maya is being bribed to participate by her parents. As the pair face down emboldened racists, clueless friends, and fears of the future, though, they are surprised to find awkwardness giving way to friendship, and they eventually start caring about the election, social issues, and each other. Heartfelt and real on both political and personal fronts, this politically embedded romance tempers realistic anxieties and disappointments with hope and at least one happy ending. Though clearly agenda-driven, it successfully puts issues of cultural and religious diversity at the forefront, with Jewish and Muslim main characters striving to defeat a fearmongering conservative candidate, which gives this novel an urgent currency. Jamie and Maya themselves are fairly one-note characters, but this ultimately gives readers room to recognize themselves in the duo’s fears, frustrations, and dreams. The novel pontificates at times, like a how-to guide for the politically motivated under-eighteen crowd, but that’s precisely who will love the optimism of this election-year romance.
