This book touched my heart! Moving and funny and deep-- definitely one of my favorite reads this year.
After emigrating from China, 10-year-old Mia Tang's parents take a job managing a rundown motel, despite the nasty owner who exploits them, while she works the front desk and tries to cope with fitting in at her school.

I work in youth services, and I want to read all the books! My favorites are literary fiction, spooky or suspenseful books, narrative nonfiction and biographies and memoirs. I also love to hike and camp, hang out with my fuzzy dog, play music and pretend I'm actually going to complete a crafty project.
