Fresh Off the Boat
by Melissa De La Cruz

Vicenza is hating America. She has no friends, no boyfriend, and goes to the movies with her family on Friday nights. She lies to her Filipino friend about her American experience too. In the end she finds a friend, a boyfriend, and happiness. This book is unique because the author has a way of putting you in the story. I would recommend this book to friends. I enjoyed learning about America through Vicenza's eyes.
