Kitsu's Diary Desiri Okobia

"Kitsu's Diary" is a classic retelling of good girl meeting bad boy. This retelling, however, takes place in twenty-first century, inner-city London. In it, good girl Kitsu falls in love with bad boy Trevor. Written from the angle of Kitsu's diary recollections, it gives great insight into the mind of a teenage girl and why they fall for guys who, for all intents and purposes, should be avoided. Ironically, it doesn't end there, as Kitsu's relationship with Trevor leads to a greater understanding of herself, her mother, and the God who made her.
