With the Fire on High

Hello! Hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving! This month’s book club book was With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo. 

I don’t even remember how I came across this book as a recommendation. However, I am happy I did. 

It is a great coming of age story and  really about following your dreams and  that not everyone’s path in life will be the same.  Emoni loves cooking and  loves her grandma and  baby. Due to having a baby she knows that that’s her responsibility and  cooking is on the back burner (no pun intended). 

However, how she thought her life would go isn’t what it turned out to be and  was actually better and  she couldn’t believe the opportunities she received. 

 

 

I give this book 5/5 stars.
