Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass by Meg Medina
2.0
This is a YA book that deals with bullying and abusive situations.
When she starts a new school, Piddy Sanchez receives a message that Yaqui Delgado wants to kick her ass. Piddy, who is just starting to develop womanly curves is at first surprised to realize she does, in fact, have an ass, though she remains confused as to who Yaqui is and why she is determined to attack her newly-discovered rump.
There are some humorous bits, but overall there's a lot of angst, trauma, and a hastily tied-together ending that didn't really do justice to the story or characters.
2 out of 5 stars.
