Don't Ask Me Where I'm from by Jennifer De Leon

4.0

Lilliana Cruz is a protagonist who a lot of people will be able to relate to, she's trying to fit in at her new mostly white school, be there for her mom after her father disappeared, and be a writer all at once. She’s a character you feel like you're really with and can get you invested in a really good way. Even though there's not an epic plot, there are still hurdles to jump, and they are never easy. Its a wonderful new perspective for young people on how to navigate the world, and the author did a great job of giving the at times sirius story warm and hopeful moments.
