The Education of Margot Sanchez by Lilliam Rivera
3.0
My biggest issue with this book was Margot herself. I get flawed and unlikable characters, but she was completely self-absorbed. It was hard to see past her selfishness. While there was some character growth (less than what I would have expected) for her at the end of the book, I feel like it came too late to change my opinion of her.
There's a lot going on throughout the book as far as the story goes. It's some pretty heavy stuff: family issues, growing up, fitting in, and gentrification to name a few. The book doesn't seem busy, though, because a lot of it isn't explored as fully as one might like (recalling what happened at the beach party here).
The Education of Margot Sanchez was a decent, but predictable, book.
