Summer is a bust. Instead of spending time with friends, it is off to Honduras to visit family. Great family characters and an interesting look at the traditional Quinceanera versus making it a more individual affair. Lovely.

What a great book! Sue (Suyapa) is surprised to learn her family is planning to celebrate her quinces during their summer trip to Honduras. She‘s not at all comfortable with dancing, speaking in front of groups, or wearing the high heels and puffy pink dress her mom gives her. I cheered her on as she advocated for herself, agreeing to the celebration but asking for it to better reflect her own awesome, quirky personality.
Awesome graphic novel about a cool kid who doesn‘t feel like she fits the mold of her family. Beautiful representation of her culture also - it is set mostly in Honduras. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
