Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo

4.0

Overall, I truly enjoyed reading this book. It wasn't the most enrapturing or complex story I've read, but it certainly holds a special place in my heart. I also enjoyed Yahaira's relationship with Dre so much. I loved all the sweet moments shared between the two, and it made me feel more like being gay was "normal". A lot of the times books are flamboyant or completely ignore that kind of representation, but it was nice in this book. Not only that, but I enjoyed the emotions displayed throughout the book on all subjects. Clap When You Land is nicely written. A fairly quick and easy read, but emotional and bittersweet.
