I loved this book. I loved the way it was written, and how well it conveyed that Ana was learning English and missing pieces of conversations. It was sweet and poignant. It’s about high schoolers, and definitely for a teen audience, but I’m in my early thirties and I learned something new about the human experience in reading this book.
Moderate: Xenophobia
Minor: Violence
Lots of brief references to xenophobia, and one incident of xenophobic violence.
