Sal and Gabi Break the Universe (Sal and Gabi, #1)
by
"Chaotic, funny, quirky, and poignant somehow all at once, this creative book (and sequel!) never fail to make me smile. Nearly all characters are Cuban-American :)"

The Epic Fail of Arturo Zamora
by
"Love this one! It shines earnestly with humor and heart, full of food and family and warmth. It's about a Cuban teen dealing with romance, working at his family restaurant, and fighting a guy who wants to shut it all down."

Refugee
by
"One of the three stories revolves around a Cuban girl named Isabel and her refugee journey. The book is fantastically fast-paced, a page-turner for sure, with characters you'll root for and plot threads that intertwine beautifully."

Ghosts
by
"Infused with Dia de los Muertos-related art and Mexican culture, this book centers a spooky story, sister dynamics, moving troubles, and a light touch of romance, with a protagonist of (I think?) Mexican descent."
