Description

This warm, richly layered coming-of-age novel follows a Mexican American girl as she navigates family expectations, shifting friendships, and the complicated path toward self-acceptance. Set against the vibrant rhythms of Latina family and community life, the story explores body image, cultural identity, belonging, and the bonds that shape us. With humor, heart, and an affectionate eye for intergenerational relationships, it offers an empowering portrait of growing into one’s own voice while honoring where one comes from.
