Veronica Talks to Boys

Book 2 in The Veronica Series. When Veronica tells her boyfriend she's black, he laughs, pinches her cheek and says, "But, you're so white." Is she too sensitive, like he says?
Another boy starts paying attention to her. He's mixed, too. Should she drop the boy who might have a problem with her for the other guy, who may know what it's like to live in two worlds?
