Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass by Meg Medina

4.0

This is a really well-written, important book, but it was also very hard for me to read. I get stressed out when I read about characters shirking schoolwork and particularly stressed when the characters are being bullied. But there are a lot of important messages in this book about how fear and bullying scar you and can change who you are and how the most important thing is to take care of yourself, even if that means leaving the situation. And the book ends on a hopeful and happy note, despite the scars the narrator will hold forever.
