I liked this book as an adult reading a YA book it was entertaining. It described some sad situations revolving around being an illegal immigrant and first gen child.
I like that the end didn’t have a resolution to his mom being deported because often that is the reality of these kinds of situations.
Graphic: Deportation
Minor: Racism, Trafficking, and Abandonment
