What would you do if your mother fell back in love with the no-good, nomadic father that abandoned her, and you, and is now back for the money? Oh, and he might be (definitely is) associating with criminals. In Zara Miller's hilarious young adult epic I am Cecilia, a young, hot-headed intellectual prodigy must deal with family secrets once buried, now opening too many cans of worms and betrayals.
Suffocating in a small Eastern European village, Cecilia's meticulous plans are constantly dashed by selfish adults and the town bully Jessica. Cecilia is still there to solve her small circle of friends' crises. And they have them - in spades! Too smart for her own good, her worst enemy is often the raging fire of rebellion constantly burning within herself. Oh, and the boy she tries to convince herself she's not in love with might follow in his father's footsteps and play hockey on the other side of the world. But that's okay.
She knows she will escape to fulfill her destiny to change the world. Because she knows exactly who she is.
I am Cecilia.
