Another astonishing debut, Somewhere Between Bitter and Sweet by Laekan Zea Kemp follows two teens who are exploring their identities and falling in love for the first time. Penelope Prado has dreams of opening up a pastelería next to her parents' restaurant, but when her dreams collide with her parents' expectations, Pen is stuck between disappointing them or following her own path. Meanwhile, Xander Amaro is a new employee at the restaurant who sees right through Pen's tough exterior, but he has problems of his own as he searches for his father and deals with his precarious immigration status.
