Beth (bbulow) | 2403 comments March's Group Buddy Read is All That Really Matters by Nicole Deese!

GR Summary
Molly McKenzie's bright personality and on-trend fashion and beauty advice have earned her an impressive social media following, as well as a big paycheck each month. When her manager-turned-boyfriend says she has an audition to appear as a host on a makeover show that nominates underprivileged youth, her dream of further fame seems to be coming true. There's just one catch: she has little experience interacting with people in need.

When her manager-boyfriend convinces her to partner with a local organization, she begins volunteering with a summer youth program. The program's director, Silas Whittaker, challenges her at every turn, but she swiftly grows more attached to the kids--and him--every day.

As Molly experiences an acceptance unlike anything she's known, she wrestles with the lies she's been believing about herself for years. She thought she knew what mattered most in life, but maybe she's had it wrong this whole time, and there's more to being truly seen than what she's built her entire life on.

Katrina Lybbert | 900 comments I am hoping to read this one later in the month. Sounds good!


Betty (bettywoj) | 4 comments I finished reading it several days ago. It was a great read, and quite heart-warming. I loved it! Can't wait for the sequel (thankfully, only until next month!). I'm in the process of writing my first novel and I learned a lot about writing from reading All That Matters. In fact, I'm revising my manuscript from 3rd person POV to 1st person. I'm glad I did it. You gotta read this book!!

Rita Story | 1 comments I finished the book two days ago. Initially, I thought it was a preteen novel because the main character was a self-centered fashion influencer. I kept reading and enjoyed the development of the plot. I think this would be a great mother-daughter book to read and discuss.

I love first person narration! I find it so immersive. :D
