Books:
As an adolescent I was very attached to Sarah Dessen books. However, now I'm into books that have some attachment to reality. For example, I was reading one of my professor's books, La Flor Mas Bella, a book centering around the concept of maquiladoras and the injustices it has created in Mexico.
