The Secret Story of Sonia Rodriguez

This book is amazing and totally realistic.I almost thought it was a biography of sonia. You should definitely check this book out. One chapter and you’re hooked! Simply another result of Mr. Alan Sitomer’s genius.

I just finished listening (audio book from my Library) and I felt the anger, the sorrow and the happines for Sonia Rodriguez…my daughter starts High School and this is one of the books she could read and I was glad I bought it for her. I plane to go over it with her.

i know i loved it loved 2 and i also read it in one day it is the 1st chapter book i ever wanted 2 finish.

i fell in love with this book i never finished a chapter book because there was nothing i can relate too a little so my cuzin showed me th book i read the 1st page i loved i read it all in 1 day me gusto este libro que todos lo leen.

this is a good book to learn about mexican costumes

THIS BOOK IS THE BEST IT WELL DRAG YOU RITE IN!!!

I got this book from my school libary and when i started reaing it just to pretend i got sucked into it i saw wht awas going on!! i wish ic an fna another book like this i gto in trouble by my mom for reading but i finshed the book in 4 hours(:

i love the book! i feel that i can actually relate to sonia and she inspires me to try hard each and every day!!

i LOVE THIS BOOK TO THE FULLEST. icoULD RELATE TO THIS STORY A LOT. tHE FIRSt PAGE TO THE LAST PAGE iTTS GREAT AND INTRESTING.

i totally LOVED this book especially because it related a little about me because my name is Sonia Rodriguez too:) so i recommend any of you to definately check this book out, it’s great!

LHS made my brother read this book……i wish they would have never done that..

It’s written by someone who clearly doesn’t know what it feels like to be who we are. You cannot understand how we feel because you are not us. Your book is very corny and cheesy in the mind of a true MEXICAN. You just don’t know wassup and you never will…..

totally great and comedic
love the book…

- This book makes you dont want to stop reading it. The book gets more intersting everytime. Sonia is a great author a teen that tells the truth, and the most thing i love about her is that no matter what she wants to be someone in life. (:

I <3 this book its really amazing

I related to a lot of things in this book. my ethnicity is black and I love this this book.

This book is really great. You should read it some time.

u llame dude dhis book is good ok he aint mexican yes but kallam down it just a book

I want my own Geraldo

This book made me so mad at her mother and aunt. I would’ve gone crazy in Sonia’s situation.I admire her strength.

I’ve own this book and I’ve read it so many times. Every time I read it it makes me get teary eyed. Its such a great inspirational and motivating book. Now this is truly a page turning book! hehe
Great job Alan! (:

the best book ever. i really enjoy all his books and reccomend them for everyone

Totally fell in love with the character of sonia rodriguez when i read it. and i strongly suggest that you mr. alan get this book made into a movie, cuz it could totally get people to sympathize cuz this book is actually the real story for the lives of some people LOVED UR BOOK!!

that is the best book i have ever read,
its very interesting

this has been such a good book so far and i hope to like more of Alan Lawrence Sitomer

its a good book you shood read it

I just started to read this book yesterday it is awesome so far! It has a positive advice. Tells a great story.

I love this book its intresting and funny.It’s a great mixture of spanish and english.You can relate to it alot if you are spanish. Probably even if you speak english.As soon as I started reading i felt stuck reading the book for half an hour.I still wanted more!!! It’s a juicy funny book with love sex drugs and much more.<3 LOVE IT

This book is me and mi familia!!! This is just the extra push that I needed. I don’t think I have ever read a book this fast before,… I love it!
Thank you Alan!

This book kept me reading nonstop. It was so good all of my other friends read it! Sonia’s story is so much like my life. It shows the hardships us mexicans girls face. and we have the same last name. this book inspired me and gave me hope with my future life, and of course with my demandant mom. (And again.. Alan is a great author)

i Only had to read the first page and i got hooked in a snap ! i love this book all time favorite through out my life(:

he really has a way of attracting teenagers’ attention. alot of my guy friends are not big readers, but they can’t put his books down once they start! i love this book, and can definitley relate to it!!! i just kept nodding my head and laughing throughout the whole book, because it sounded so much like me and my friends and family! Alan just visited my school in the Rio Grande Valley, and he really wowed me, because he wasn’t just another adult telling kids right from wrong, he was relating to the students through experiences he has heard. it’s hard to find someone honest like that

i definitley disagree with ur comment, not only has he captured what so many mexican american teenagers go thru, he has left all of us first generation high school graduates in our family with some hope! just because he didn’t capture ur point of view, doesn’t mean he didn’t capture others’ point of view!

Heii alan i totally fell in Love widd ur book its badass:D && i totally agree widd RUBY. u should make a movie of this book(:

Why did they let the uncle live there. whats wrong with them
Im mexican and even I wouldn’t let this happen 

i have to read this book for my school and this book is very good.

i like this book because i also struggle through the same thing being the oldest

while reading this book i realized how i could relate to what Sonia goes through.family issues..most latinas have alot of duties at home like cleaning, cooking, looking after little kids, nd most of all HOMEWORK…just like sonia has a prohibited relationship..i have one too…but its way WORSE than Sonia’s…anyways yeah AWESOME BOOK.! :]

Thanks for the nice note!

All my best,

I just finished reading this book and all i can say is tht i really loved it and learned!

Oh my god! My name is sonia rodriguez but im from Houston, tx & i DO have a cousin named maria :O I want to read this book!

yes it is good im starting to read this book in my class

before this school year i didnt apply my self as much as i should have, now in my junior year of highschool i understand everything sonia does in this book, and however it may be fiction i imagine there is atleast one otherperson out there like this. this is no doubt the best i have ever read. all 309 pages of in during a weekend. i must say i have a hectic schedule aswell but nothing compared to this and i still found time to enjoy every word of this book. also makes me want to find all the other good books out there and start reading everyday. i finally understand what everyone else feels so emotional about books.

That is a fantastic message! I really appreciate the time you took to write – and glad you have discovered the JOY of reading.
Keep it up… the treasure will last a lifetime.

Happy holidays.

All my best,

Alan
