My Family Divided: One Girl's Journey of Home, Loss, and Hope by Diane Guerrero, Erica Moroz
4.0
Very timely memoir about the OITNB actress's youth as an American child of undocumented immigrants, leading up to and following her parents' deportation when she was 14 years old. Guerrero wasn't put into a detention center for children -- in fact, she wasn't followed up after at all. The writing is aimed at middle school, but the discussion of her young adulthood seems more for an older teen audience. As an adult, I think I'd enjoy the original memoir she wrote that this was adapted from (but you know, no time for grown-up books for Liz).
