De dichter X door Elizabeth Acevedo

The Poet X is een realistische fictieroman die in verzen is geschreven. Het gaat over de 15-jarige Xiomara Batista, een begaafde dichteres die met haar gezin in Harlem, NY woont. De roman is vanuit het oogpunt van Xiomara en leest als haar persoonlijke poëziedagboek waarin ze haar leven beschrijft, haar kijk op religie, het voortdurend geconfronteerd worden met seksisme, haar strikte Dominicaanse ouders, haar nieuwe verboden vriendje, en het navigeren door de wereld als een jonge vrouw van kleur proberen om haar stem te vinden.

- Mami is a very devout Catholic that wanted to be a nun and wishes Xiomara had the same devotion. She says that Xiomara should have learned her faith like she did. However, Xiomara can see from her mother's scars that corporal punishment was how her mother was taught faith, something that Xiomara doesn't believe is right.
- Xiomara's notebook of poems is sacred to her. It is where she pours out all of her emotions, thoughts, and opinions that contradict much of what her parents believe. It symbolizes her hopes and dreams of becoming a poet and finding the courage to use her voice in a world that continually tries to silence her.
- Xiomara’s baby bracelet has her name on one side and "Mi Hija" (My Daughter) on the other. When Xiomara was caught kissing Aman, her punishment was abusive and harsh. However, on Xiomara's birthday, Mamí had the bracelet re-sized. It symbolizes their complicated relationship as well as Xiomara’s identity as her mother's daughter and as an individual with thoughts and feelings of her own.
- "I lay it across my wrist and cinch the clasps closed.Her daughter on one side,myself on the other."
