OLDER FICTION
(4) YA Platonic teenage best friends Mo (short for Mohammed) and Annie have always been there for each other, so Annie decides to marry Mo to avoid his being deported to Jordan. Though both characters are smart, they're also short-sighted and don't realize the consequences, personally and legally, of their choice. The alternating narration--particularly Mo's snarky voice--propels the somewhat over-packed story.
