The Downstairs Girl by Stacey LeeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Jo is an unusual heroine--a Chinese-American living in Atlanta at the cusp of the women's vote and Jim Crow laws. She is resourceful and observant, courageous and intelligent. During the course of the book she discovers hidden talents, hidden roots, and hidden love. Its a YA romance that also encourages standing up for what's right, and for others, and for yourself.

It is better to look out a window than into a looking glass; otherwise all you see is yourself and what's behind you.
