Don't Ask Me Where I'm From Book Review


However we follow fifteen year old Liliana who a Latinx girl trying to make sense of life without her father due to some mystery things that happened to him that couldn’t be revealed as Liliana moves into another school called the METCO the kids start to make rude remarks about her because she was different than her white peers she was with them she developed a lot for a white boy called Dustin Walker who played two faced about not dating another girl and acting as a decent boy because Liliana was different that gave his friend Steve the chance to be rude about who she was and everything Liliana then got sick of everyone making her feel so different so she spoke out, “I’m tired of people asking me where I’m from!” Which was relatable to someone who isn’t white and is tired of being treated differently because of their colour and race De Leon wrote not only a character who was fighting for the best of her family but had a real voice with humour that will make readers cheer and cry for Liliana as she makes sense in the world she was living I loved this one a lot I couldn’t put it down because I wanted to know what happened next! I can’t wait to read what else De Leon writes in the near future

Q: so first of all you might want to know how do I create my characters names? A: basically I find names on baby name sites for my male characters I write more male characters than female because I feel there's something about writing boy characters that make my voice come out more, but everyone has a different taste of gender they write characters for.  most people weren't a fan of me writing boy characters but I'm not changing the gender I write for to make anyone happy, anyway okay enough ranting about that we're moving on now! Q: the other you might want to know is how old are my characters generally? A: at the moment my characters are high school teens going to school and learning about life also discovering themselves and I think teens are inter...
