I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter
by Erika L. Sánchez
This book did an excellent job of portraying a very specific type of person very faithfully and accurately. We see her struggles and successes, her good moments and bad moments. There was no attempt to make Julia more conventionally likable for the sake of telling a feel-good story, and that made her a much more relatable character, in my opinion. Even though this was specifically a story about being the daughter of immigrant parents, I think anyone whose hopes and dreams for themselves were at odds with someone else's expectations will find something here they can relate to.
