and so it was upsetting and hard given the attitude that some have toward immigration today.
Something in Between by
Melissa de la Cruz, who became a US citizen at the age of thirty and has her own story to tell, tells the story of a high school senior who discovers that she and her family are undocumented. Set mostly in
LA, well, in the richie-rich boyfriend's neighborhood of
Bel Air and the
Valley, where our main character, Jasmine lives and also in
DC, this book is so real! Jasmine is luckier than most undocumented kids though. She does have connections. Great, great book with a lot of think and talk about in here.
