Americanized: Rebel Without a Green Card by Sara Saedi
5.0
I love reading the stories people write about their own lives. Especially when the writer has a distinctive and/or appealing voice. And this writer definitely did. Her writing is humorous and relatable and feels like a conversation with a good friend.
I think hearing an immigration story from start to finish holds a ton of importance right now. I want to hear all the versions from all the people and I want you to hear them too. Information can help us better understand and empathize, which can help us be better humans who look for the similarities more than the differences.
Girls, no matter their immigration status, love their families, bicker with their siblings, pine for boys that don’t deserve them and agonize over their perfectly beautiful noses. We’re all in this together. Let’s tear down those walls one book at a time.
