Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In this debut contemporary YA romance by bestselling author Alisha Rai, a girl with undocumented family members goes viral after saving her crush's life in disguise. A must read for fans of Sandhya Menon and Nicola Yoon.
A Phenomenal Book Club Pick!
It's a classic story: girl meets boy, girl falls for boy, boy finally notices girl when he sees her in a homemade costume. At least, that's what Sonia Patil is hoping for when she plans to meet her crush at the local comic-con in cosplay.
But instead of winning her crush over, Sonia rescues him after he faints into a canal and, suddenly, everything changes. Since she was in disguise, no one knows who the masked do-gooder was . . .but everyone is trying to find out. Sonia can't let that happen--her sister is undocumented, and the girls have been flying under the radar since their mother was deported back to Mumbai.
Sonia finds herself hiding from social media detectives and trying to connect with her crush and his family. But juggling crushes and a secret identity might just take superpowers. Can Sonia hide in plain sight forever
Ages 13 up. Quill Tree Books.
Grades 10-12. Quill Tree Books.
Sixteen-year-old Indian American Sonia, who has undocumented family members, goes viral after saving her crush James's life.
If Sonia Patil had her way, she'd be attending her local comic con instead of covering a shift for her boss's daughter. Since Sonia's mom was deported and her sister, who never claimed deferred status under DACA, had to forgo college to support them, Sonia's had her hands full with work, school, and pretending everything is okay at home. Then Sonia, in homemade superhero cosplay, stumbles into saving her crush James's life. When a video of the daring rescue goes viral, she--or, rather, a mysterious masked savior--is thrust into the spotlight. Now she's hiding from TikTok detectives while trying to connect with James. And while she's drawn to his friendly but oblivious nature, she can't deny her escalating chemistry with another awkwardly charming boy. Juggling crushes and a secret identity might just take superpowers. Will Sonia be able to hide in plain sight forever?
Sonia Patil's mom was deported. Her sister, who never claimed deferred status under DACA, had to forgo college to support them. Sonia's had her hands full with work, school, and pretending everything is okay at home-- no time even for the local comic con. Then video of a masked person-- Sonia in homemade superhero cosplay-- goes viral when she saves the life of James Cooper, her crush. Now she's hiding from TikTok detectives while trying to connect with James-- and trying to deny her escalating chemistry with another awkwardly charming boy. Juggling crushes and a secret identity just might take superpowers! -- adapted from jacket
