Marí's dad has been a politician for maybe half of her 15 years, and now the Republican senator from (or congressmember? I forget) is running for president. Marí has taken her dad's political life and goodness for granted all these years, and her seven-year-old brother Ricky (yep, Cubans with a kid named Ricky--they love I Love Lucy) is gaga for their father and loves publicly supporting him. Marí, on the other hand, is about done with invasions of her privacy, having her social media curated, and having everyone at school know her business.

All that was bad enough...until she started to really see her father's politics and their consequences.

Sounds good, right? But the rendering was merely good, or maybe reading the book under quarantine my head wasn't in the best space for it.
