Interesting girl fitting in story

I likes that is multi cultural and a story of an experience of this teenager in LA. I could feel from the book the pressures the kids have to be act and talk and look a certain way which is pretty close to the way things are having went to school here. I liked that our heroine has to learn how to navigate being thrown in such a different society. This book made my days more exciting anticipating what would happen next.
