Illegal's 15-year-old heroine Nora is stronger and braver than I can even comprehend. Although not always easy to stomach, this book shows a side of immigration that you won't find on the evening news, and reminds readers that there are human beings behind these political buzzwords. Eye opening, heart wrenching, and mind changing; a great book for teen readers to broaden their horizons and better understand the world outside of their personal experience. #bookreview #ireadya #youngadultbooks
