📖Recommended for Grades 9 and up📖
by Elizabeth Acevedo
All Xiomara Barista wants to do is
express herself through her poetry. Unfortunately, her strict Catholic mother
causes her to be unable to share it with her family, Xiomara keeps them to
herself. Xiomara is struggling with living the life she wants and uses her
poetry to deal with the struggles she is facing with her family, her religion,
and herself.
A story written beautifully in
verse. While the book is written mainly in English, there are some parts
written in Spanish. Some readers will find themselves relating to Xiomara,
while others may find themselves grateful for the ways that they don’t.
