First let me add that while I’m thoroughly LOVING Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz, this book is not INTENDED FOR TEENS. To be sure, your teen may enjoy it, may love it but there is a lot of racial language, sex, and violence. But that aside, it is an extremely well written and thought provoking tale of poor (as in pitiful) Dominican nerd Oscar.
I can’t wait to finish it and share it with you!

Hi there!

Take care,
