I never liked young adult books, not even as a teen... but there is something special in this one. It is not the story itself -frankly, quite predictable- or the racial component -important in the context, but not prominent as much as the title would suggest-, it's the style. The two main words I can think of are "endearing" and "adorable". You can really feel the general tone of the book, without indulging too much in melancholy or naivité. Maybe it's because I had low expecations, but I really enjoyed it because of it. So much I am giving it 4 stars.
