I really enjoyed this book and I was cheering for Soila through the whole book.

Soila is a girl from Kenya who comes to America to go to college. Her family is fairly well off in Kenya and the “big job” is everything to her mother. The trouble with that is that Soila falls in love with New York City. She falls in love with New York City and wants to photograph it professionally.

I loved watching Soila’s character grow and change. There are some topical issues that were interesting to read about.

Great book. I highly recommend it!
