Welcome to Litsy!

I was disappointed. I really wanted to love it bc it talks about immigration and the separation of families, a topic that's very imp to me, but overall, it didn't offer much. The plot was slow and hinged on a sketchy history club and the romance was meh. I did enjoy some of the friendships tho. What esp turned me off was the use of misgendering and racism to show that others were trans and black when there're other affirming ways to do so

It‘s been a year since Soledad Gutierrez mom was deported after the terrible accident where she was the driver.

I‘m on the fence about this book. It read kind of disjointed and the story felt chunky in a bad way. I liked how the author showed the trauma that happens to kids when their parents are ripped from them and deported. The story did become repetitive and Kind of lagged.
