The Girl Who Fell from the Sky
by Heidi Durrow
Algonquin, $22.95

This is one of my favorite books this year. Author Heidi Durrow (who grew up in Portland) does a wonderful job of describing what it is like to struggle between two cultures / racial identities.  Her description of Portland are right on - I remember going to the Wonder Bread factory outlet with my grandma (who lived in NE Portland) and had friends who went to Holy Redeemer school.  Wondering what I'm talking about? - read the book and find out!
