Imagine that Anna Espinosa was a small Indian woman. That is this book in a nut shell. It is Maya not Anna of course, but the same animosity is shared by characters and readers alike. The book shows a bit of personality for Sydney. She so wants to be nice, but hates her all the same and has to fight her instinct to run the course. And of course, she's right always. Or is she? This Maya girl has a lot in common with Syd and it is up to Syd to see the commonalities as well as the differences and what is the essence of what makes her herself. Ah... A great escape.
