Malin Alegria

Malin Alegria’s new young adult series set in fiction Dos Rios, Texas is Border Town, in which high school sophomore Fabiola Garza’s must navigate generational, political, and physical borders.  In the third book of the series, Falling Too Fast (Point/Scholastic, $5.99), Fabiola’s dreams of escaping Dos Rios and achieving big-time stardom run up against the swoon-worth singer of a rival band. Alegria is the author of Estrella’s Quinceañera and Sofi Mendoza’s Guide to Getting Lost in Mexico.
