With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo

4.0

I picked this book mostly for it cover but I wasn’t disappointed.

I’m not much of a young adult contemporary lover but Elizabeth Acevedo struck home. The story was as I like them. Despite the many struggles of a teenage mother, it was pure happiness, with lots of diversity and culture and without unnecessary dramas. The writing was enticing. The characters were realistic. The romance was cute. And the cooking just seemed delicious.
