(2) YA In a twist on girl-abandons-friend-for-cute-guy, fourteen-year-old Emi-Lou Kaya feels angry and left out when her best friend Yvonne discovers . . . girls. Emi-Lou doesn't know which is worse--losing her closest friend, or learning she's a "butchie." In her first YA novel, adult author Yamanaka pays lively homage to Hawaii Creole English, the language of her own girlhood.
