Review of 'The First Rule of Punk' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Loved this one! Malu is a charming, relatable protagonist trying to reconcile different parts of her identity in a new place. I want to live at Calaca and have Mrs. Hidalgo recommend punk music to me all day. And I loved the inclusion of Malu's zines as part of the storytelling. My only minor criticism is that Malu would have needed some heavy-duty cleaning products to get that hair dye out of her bathroom countertops and sink (speaking from experience).
