with the fire on high!! it's about an afro-latina teen mom who gets accepted into a cooking class in her school, and cooking is her passion. it touches on what it's like to be judged by society as a black teen mom and her support group along the way. emoni (the main character) is adorable and her love interest and best friend are both hilarious and every character is enjoyable.
