This book was recommended to me by one of my Mexican high school students as she saw herself in it so much and knowing her story I can see why.
I really enjoyed this audiobook and hearing directly from the main character, it really felt like I was in her head while listening. The book deals with so many challenging themes, most prominently grief. On top of it she is experiencing mental health issues, the challenges of being the child of two immigrant parents, and all that is being a teenage girl. Though the focus is on the main character's life, you do get a subplot of mystery that is actually resolved by the end.
