Life, After
by Sarah Darer Littman
Ages: 14+
Dani's aunt and unborn cousin were killed in a terrorist attack. Since then, everything in her life in Argentina begins to crumble including private school, boyfriend, loving family, etc... Dani's family finally decides to escape the United States when there is nothing left in Argentina. Dani tries to start fresh, but adjusting to a new culture, learning a new language, and living in a small apartment is difficult. America is not all is cracked up to be. Dani is able to make friends with an usual boy named Jon and it changes her life.
I really enjoyed this book because it gave me great insight into students who have moved to the United State trying to adjust to everything that is different.
