Good story about the importance of family, without being too pushy. The lessons & events lead up to Anamay (protagonist) realizing that family, loyalty, & humility are some of the most important things in life.

Xiomara tells her story in poetic verse. Papi is present but absent, Twin is caught up in his own struggles, and Mami is trying to mold X through strict rules, heavy doses of religion, and threats of sending X away. Xiomara finds her words slowly but surely with the help of Aman, Caridad, Isabelle, Stephan, Chris, Father Sean, and Ms. Galiano.
