Stars: 3
Review by: Gwen K
This book was
okay. I would recommend it for an Asian girl who was adopted by an
American family or someone with a similar struggle. I totally believe
that we need diverse books and that every person
deserves a book with a positive protagonist similar to herself (in this
case), but this just wasn't for me. It was predictable and, at times,
redundant. Three Asian girls all adopted by American families reunite at
a church camp. The athletic character and
goody-two shoes character are a bit cliche, but they help show the
reader that a child is more than her skin/race. Good coming-of-age
story for the right kid. There were some funny parts and a bit of
tender friendship, but this was only a 3 out of 5 IMHO.
