5/30/2023 0 Comments With the fire on high full bookI absolutely loved the representation we got here – there are black characters, Latinx character, there’s a lesbian side character and I just loved how wonderfully diverse this is. This book is wonderful on so many levels. This story follows her during her senior year. Emoni is a black Latina (her father is Puerto Rican) and she is living with her grandmother, and is really passionate about cooking. With the Fire on High follows Emoni, a 17-year-old single mom, who is in her final year of high school and is struggling to get everything done right – high school, work and raising her daughter. And it was such an enjoyable read, so once again, a great cover does not disappoint. And naturally, when I am doing my favorite thing ever (meaning perusing Edelweiss) and then see a cover like this, what am I gonna do, say no? I requested this one based on the cover, the fact that everyone loves Elizabeth Acevedo and the fact that this book has so much good in it. And if you look at the cover for With the Fire on High you can see one thing – IT IS STUNNING. As you’re all very well aware, I am incapable of resisting a good cover.
