Book: All That Really Matters by Nicole Deese

By: Cece Hymes

This book was such a good book. Molly McKenenzie was a bright personality and on-tend fashion and beauty social media Influencer. Her manager, who is also her boyfriend, tells her that she has to get to a million views also to do a shoot and advertise for this company to move up. He wants her to volunteer more. To gain an edge on her competitors, she plans to volunteer for the summer at a transitional program for aged-out foster kids, but the program director, Silas Whitaker is giving her a hard time. The Program Director has so many rules and terms for volunteering. It’s like he judges a book by his cover.

Molly has a best friend Val that edits and posts all her videos and has been working with her for years. She has become very close to Molly even though they never met in person. Molly also has a twin brother that’s a pastor that she meets up with once or twice a month. Him and his parents don’t believe in social influencers.

Molly dives into mentoring and really enjoys helping them. She puts a lot of time into it and really gets connected to one of the girls. Her and the manager/boyfriend have a break up over something he wants her to do that she was not willing to do. He tries to turn her whole career into shambles even by taking her best friend Val away.

The mentoring program that she is helping needs to raise money in order to keep things going, Molly gets close to the Program director which he sees her for now they gain a big attraction to each other and work as a team. Something tragic has happened with her career, the girls, the mentoring all at once. Molly finds and tries to figure out who she really is. Salis is right there for her the whole step of the way.

This book showed me so many tips like how to get a following and be organic as a social media influencer. Also it showed me that mentoring and volunteering can do for a person. Also what the youth needs from this community. I also learned to let love find you and to give forgiveness. A lot of people deserve second chances especially if they are trying to change. I loved this book in so many ways. It’s positive and inspiring. I can’t wait to read another book by this author.
