This month we will be discussing Red Glass, an award-winning novel by Laura Resau, a Fort Collins author.  This novel is marketed as a teen book, but anyone can relate to its themes of identity, self-confidence, and growth.  Teenage Sophie travels to Mexico to help her foster brother visit his family one last time.  Along the way, she learns to trust herself and to reach out in love.  Resau touches on the plight of illegal immigrants in an empathic way and also gives a fascinating glimpse into Mexican culture.
