With The Fire On High is such a cute YA novel!
I loved Emoni's character development, especially when she talks about how she isn't ashamed of being a teen mom.
I also love the diversity throughout the book, mainly Emoni embracing her Black/Puerto Rican heritage.
I LOVE cooking and being in the kitchen, so it was fun to read about Emoni's love for cooking and food.
I removed one star because I felt like something was missing. I'm not sure what more I was looking for, but I just feel this one is incomplete somehow. I just don't know how to describe it.
Overall, a great read and I definitely recommend!
