I have to say that I thought "Bronx Masquerade" was a truly amazing, and powerful book! I felt that all of the characters had something to offer to the reader regardless of ethnicity or background. I don't think that Sheila's character (the one who wanted to be called "Natalina") was bogus at all. She was just trying to fit it in. I think children go through this sort of thing quite often as they grow older. They just want to be heard and understood. I couldn't put this book down - I loved everything about it.
