"[Inspired by two real-life trips, in this memoir] sixteen-year-old Christine takes their first solo trip to Mexico to spend a few weeks with their grandparents and t�ia. At first, Christine struggles to connect with their family they don't yet share a language with. Seeing the places their mom grew up--the school she went to, the cafe where she had her first date with their father--Christine becomes more and more aware of the generational differences in their family"--Provided by publisher.
