pickApril 25, 2023 Do not despise YA fiction. I have been reading less YA fiction because I feel like I have outgrown it but this book was definitely something that I could relate to. It was a high school aged book about a senior named Alejandra Kim and her confessions as a Korean and Hispanic girl living in Queens, New York. She felt like she never belonged and "never felt right" because ppl would not pronounce her name correctly. 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
April 16, 2023 In the chapters after, Alejandra meets a longtime friend Billy Diaz, but his old nickname is Chivi. He just returned from the DR and they catch up. Then, in another chapter, Alejandra discusses the tragic loss of her Papí and how she wished she could have done more to keep him alive
April 16, 2023 Yesterday I decided to take a break and read a YA fiction book. When I was at Books Inc at Laurel Village, this book really called my name. I glanced at it and then REALLY read the synopsis. It was relatable and intriguing because it is about a senior in high school named Alejandra Kim who is disrespected and teachers mispronounce her name which leads to her friend Laurel writing up a petition to fire JBJ.

@TheSpineView Thanks for the tag!
Post a positive quote and tag a friend!
Non-Fiction:When reading parts of the passage I was confused on exactly why someone would mess with her transcripts, until I realized it was because she was poor; they didn't do it out of revenge or hatred.
Fiction: I would say the main character taught me the most. She taught me that even when it seems like you're in over your head, their's always a way out.
😁Fiction: This book teaches you that life isn't always fair. It teaches it in a brutal way of a highschooler who ( we think) had her transcripts tampered with, so she wouldn't be accepted into any university of college.
Non-Fiction: No, not at all. The author rights it from a viewpoint of someone having their transcript messed with and with how anyone would react. It's doesn't have bias and is simply made for you to believe what you wish. 😁
