Book Preview:

#1 Your father holds you up to the sky, telling you to look at the stars. He tells you, Remember this. You are nothing but a small animal in the pink dress from your abuela, dirty sneakers, and bloodied knees.

#2 When you are sixteen, you shave your head, disappointed that no curb or wall has altered its perfect sphere. You quit baseball and move out of your father’s house. Instead of ten holes, your body now has twenty-three. You stop returning your father’s phone calls.

#3 You choose the needle and the hand that holds it. You carve the things you want to remember into your shoulder, your hip, the crook of your arm. You carve yourself into paper. These are not secrets, but they keep.
