So far, I am enjoying all of the diversity of this book. Everyone seems to have different cultures, appearances, and home lives. Salamanca "Sal" has a strong personality and I am enjoying her as a main character. One quote that I particularly liked was "do not judge a man until you have walked two moons in his moccasins." I think it is obvious that the book is based around this quote.
My biggest question right now is where is Sal's mom? She talks about her a lot of mentions that her mom "wasn't coming home" and that is when her and her dad moved. She is currently on her way to visit her mom with her grandparents. At this point, I am not sure if her mom is dead or alive.
I think there is going to be a lot of depth to this book! I'm excited to see where it goes!

I myself have never heard of this book, but so far from your discription of it, it sounds pretty good! I will have to get with you once you finish it to see if you still like it!
