(2) YA Fifteen-year-old Violet Paz, who is half Cuban American, half Polish American, feels as though she has a lot of "half talents" but nothing she's really good at. Newly recruited to the high school speech team, Violet discovers her comedic abilities, writing a funny shtick about her "Loco Family." Violet's wry narration will make readers laugh, whether or not their families are as loco as Violet's.
