Dear Haiti, Love Alaine
of Maika Moulite (Goodreads Author), Maritza Moulite (Goodreads Author)
Description
Co-written by sisters Maika and Maritza Moulite, and told in epistolary style through letters, articles, emails, and diary entries, this exceptional debut novel captures a sparkling new voice and irrepressible heroine in a celebration of storytelling sure to thrill fans of Nicola Yoon, Ibi Zoboi and Jenna Evans Welch!When a school presentation goes very wrong, Alaine Beauparlant finds herself suspended, shipped off to Haiti and writing the report of a lifetimeâŠYou might ask the obvious question: What do I, a seventeen-year-old Haitian American from Miami with way too little life experience, have to say about anything?Actually, a lot.Thanks to âthe incidentâ (donât ask), I'm spending the next two months doing what my school is calling a "spring volunteer immersion project.â Itâs definitely no vacation. Iâm toiling away under the ever-watchful eyes of Tati Estelle at her new nonprofit. And my lean-in queen of a mother is even here to make sure I do things right. Or she might just be lying low to dodge the media sharks after a much more public incident of her ownâŠand to hide a rather devastating secret.All things considered, there are some pretty nice perksâŠlike flirting with Tatiâs distractingly cute intern, getting actual face time with my mom and experiencing Haiti for the first time. Iâm even exploring my familyâs historyâwhich happens to be loaded with betrayals, superstitions and possibly even a family curse.You know, typical drama. But it's nothing I can't handle.
