Summary
"Juan has big plans. He's going to be the El Paso boy made good, land that basketball scholarship, and make something of himself -- something better than his mom's, Fabi, string of cruddy boyfriends. He just needs to make it happen. Juan's best friend, JD, has plans too. He's going to be a filmmaker one day, like Tarantino or Del Toro (not Spielberg). He's got a camera and he's got passion. What more could he need? Fabi doesn't have a plan anymore. When you get pregnant at sixteen, you realize plans don't always pan out and that there are some things you just can't plan for. . . . Like a run-in with the police. Like the implosion of your family. Like your past coming back to haunt you. Like the fear that you, your son, and everyone you love are missing something . . missing everything."--cProvided by publisher
