Imposter syndrome and other confessions of Alejandra Kim  Cover Image Book Book

Imposter syndrome and other confessions of Alejandra Kim / Patricia Park.

Park, Patricia, (author.).

Summary:

"Alejandra Kim doesn't feel like she belongs anywhere. At her wealthy Manhattan high school, her super-Spanish name and super Korean-face do not compute to her mostly white "woke" classmates and teachers. In her Jackson Heights neighborhood, she's not Latinx enough. Even at home, Ale feels unwelcome. And things at home have only gotten worse since Papi's body was discovered on the subway tracks. Ale wants nothing more than to escape the city for the wide-open spaces of the prestigious Wyder University. But when a microaggression at school thrusts Ale into the spotlight--and into a discussion she didn't ask for--Ale must discover what it means to carve out a space for yourself to belong." -- Provided by publisher.
