Damaged delivery
The cover is like this and the only reason why it's not in a worst condition is because it's an hard cover. Either way this was not supposed to happen.

Muito melhor do que eu esperava!
A รบnica coisa que eu esperava deste livro era que falasse sobre uma garota no colegial que tinha sido mรฃe adolescente e que gosta muito de cozinhar. Emoni tem muito mais do que isso, mas adorei ver como a autora abordou todos os lados de sua personalidade e da sua histรณria de um jeito tรฃo natural e real, que dรก para se apegar a ela logo nos primeiros capรญtulos! Tem poucas coisas que eu posso falar sobre o livro, porque ele entrega tudo que promete! Os capรญtulos sรฃo muito curtos, mas esse รฉ o jeito da autora de contar, o que ร s vezes me incomodou, mas na maior parte do tempo sรณ me fez ler o mais rรกpido possรญvel. Gostei bastante do arco da personagem, de sua personalidade como mรฃe, mas ainda adolescente. De sua relaรงรฃo com o pai, a avรณ, a filha e o pai de sua filha. De como ela questiona como รฉ vista por ser negra e porto riquena. Os aprendizados dela como cozinheira tambรฉm foram muito bacanas e apropriados, na hora certa, ainda que previsรญveis. O romance รฉ outra coisa que foi mega fofa, Malachi รฉ um amor e conquista fรกcil, entรฃo nรฃo deixa quase nada a desejar. Na verdade, a รบnica coisa que deixa a desejar รฉ que eu queria bem mais romance, entende? Sei que nรฃo era o foco do livro, mas as poucas cenas realmente voltadas ao romance eram รณtimas, me fazendo querer mais, muito mais! Quem mandou a autora ser tรฃo boa? E o desenvolvimento do enredo รฉ, como eu falei, previsรญvel, ainda que nรฃo de um jeito realmente ruim. Super recomendo! Achei que fosse ser sรณ mais um livro adolescente, mas รฉ bem mais do que isso! Todos os personagens sรฃo marcantes e a histรณria em si รฉ bem real e preciosa! Nota verdadeira: 4,5

This review has been long awaited. I can not stop thinking about this book and the swarm of feelings it gave me while reading. I connected with this book and Emoni in so many ways possible that I never would have imagined. A teenage girl trying so hard to meet her dreams and live her young life while holding the responsiblity of raising a baby, along with many other challenges of being a teenage mother. . I connected to this book in a way I havenโt connected to others. I, myself am a young mother of a three-year-old boy and experienced most of what Emoni experienced throughout this book. Emoni is an amazing character who is strong and an inspiration to other young mothers. I could read her story over and over again. . Emoni is an aspiring chef and a good one. Reading this book will make you hungry and wanting so badly to eat her cooking. I wish I could. It was so fun reading a book that talks about food. Who doesnโt love food? Itโs such a unique book, something I havenโt read before. . ๐๐ข๐ ๐ข ๐บ๐๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ผ๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐ผ๐ผ๐ค ๐๐ผ๐ง๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง๐ฌ ๐ซ๐๐๐ข๐ฉ๐ข๐๐ฌ? . One of my new favourite books. I can not stop talking about it and will keep talking about it for a long time. It will be on my shelves for years to come, for me to read again and again. Elizabeth Acevedo is an amazing story teller and writer. I can not wait for her to release more books.

Heartwarming
With the Fire on High really tugged on my heartstrings, I loved everything about it. The themes of family, friendship and growing up are something I'm always interested in reading about and Acevedo incorporated them so well. I adored both the characters and the writing style as well. Highly recommended.
