⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 for this one, which doesn’t release until 8.4.20. Add it to your purchase lists and TBRs though, as it is timely and riveting. First-generation American Liliana Cruz is surprised to learn that her parents signed her up for METCO, a program that takes Boston teens to the suburbs to integrate schools. When she is accepted, Lili finds herself in a whole new world. When she learns that her father has been deported and that both of her parents are undocumented, she feels even more out of place. Can she cope with her home reality and still blend in? Highly recommended for grades 8+.
