TJ Powar Has Something to Prove by Jesmeen Kaur Deo

This book, along with Sari, Not Sari, came out at the local library during Asian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. It took a little longer to get this book because there were so many holds on it to read it.

Summary

-Tejinder Powar, aka "TJ" is on her Vancouver, British Columbia's high school debate team. So is her cousin Simran Sahiba. One day, a horribly mean meme showing a hair Simran, with heavy body hair and unibrow, makes it way around, causing nothing but pain for Simran. TJ is also part of the meme, but listed as the pretty counterpart to her cousin. One night, after a romantic encounter with her boyfriend goes horribly wrong, TJ decides to try something. She is going to forego her waxing and shaving and see if people still care about her, even though she has the same heavy body hair issue as her cousin. And despite the fact that her classmates are unused to seeing her like that, a fellow debate team member can't seem to stay away from her. He's almost attracted to her naturally beautiful, but hairy body.
