Review: With the Fire on High

With the Fire on HighWith the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

After her unplanned pregnancy during her freshman year of high school, people view Emoni Santiago differently. It doesn't slow her down, though. With the help and encouragement of her 'Buela, who watches her daughter during the day, Emoni makes tough choices and struggles to persevere through high school. She uses her passion for cooking and drive to create a better life for her daughter to pursue her dreams. Will she continue to make the same mistakes? Will her creativity and love of food be enough to elevate her out of a difficult situation? With the Fire on High is a solid second novel from Elisabeth Acevedo and great or anyone who loved her first, The Poet X.
