There aren’t as many themes to this book, “Stolen”, then you would think there would be. These are just 3 main themes of the book that I have noticed. If you want to look for more themes within the book, I suggest reading it.
One of my main themes about this book is trust. This is one of the themes because Gemma was in a situation where she had no idea who to trust. First, she trusted her parents with her helping her with life even though they were always too busy at their jobs. Next, she trusted her friends more than her parents and started drinking in a park late at night. Then she started to trust Ty because she thought that he was cute and wanted to kiss him at the airport when they first met face to face(even though he is 9 years older

    'How The Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents' By Julia Alvarez

    Short Critical Response “How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents” In the book, “How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents”, by Julia Alvarez shows the lives of four sisters who struggle with finding their own identities in American culture. The four girls named Carla, Sandra, Yolanda and Sofia were forced to move out of the Dominican Republic when they were young girls and now struggle to adapt to a new culture that is much different from their social norms.
