Mariana’s Playlist:
Breakaway, Kelly
Clarkson 
Chapter 1, In the Kitchen
Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away
And breakaway
Philadelphia, Neil Young 
Chapter 6, The News on the Patio
I've got my friends in the world,
I had my friends
When we were boys and girls
And the secrets came unfurled.
City of brotherly love
Place I call home
Don't turn your back on me
I don't want to be alone
Love lasts forever.
Don't Leave Home, Dido 
Chapter 7, At the Airport
Like a ghost don't need a key
Your best friend I've come to be
And please, don't think of getting up for me
You don't even need to speak
When I've been here just for one day
You'll already miss me if I go away
So close the blinds and shut the door
You won't need other friends anymore
Oh, don't leave home, oh, don't leave home
Puerto Rico, 2006, Victor Manuelle 
Chapter 12, Arriving in Utuado
Fly Away, Lenny Kravitz

Chapter 14, After Dinner
I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly
I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please
Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah
A Change Will Do You Good, Sheryl Crow 
Chapter 20, At the Internet Café
I think a change
(A change would do you good)
Would do you good
(A change would do you good)
Hello it's me, I'm not at home
If you'd like to reach me, leave me alone
Beautiful Day, U2 
Chapter 25, The Quinceanera Church Service
You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend, a hand
In return for grace
It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Jet Lag, Joss Stone 
Chapter 28, The Quinceanera Party
How the time flies
When you're near me
Get those butterflies
Inside and I'll be
Where the stars shine
Where the birds fly
'Till the next time you're mine
And the higher you take me
The more that you make me
Feel so hazy
Tell me what this means
I got jet lag and I never even left the ground
Kiss Me, Sixpence None The Richer 
Chapter 36, At El Yunque
Oh kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moons sparkling
So kiss me
Apologize, OneRepublic 
Chapter 42, The Talk with Lilly
I'm holdin' on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground.
And I'm hearin' what you say,
But I just can't make a sound.
You tell me that you need me,
Then you go and cut me down...
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry,
Didn't think I'd turn around...
And say...
That it's too late to apologize.
It's too late...
Born in Puerto Rico, Paul Simon 
Chapter 47, The Parents Arrive
No one knows you like I do
Nobody can know your heart the way I do
No one can testify to all that you've been through
But I will.
I was born in Puerto Rico
And my blood is taino
Spanish caribbean my soul
Bittersweet Symphony, The Verve 
Chapter 49, On the Porch
You know I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can change my mold, no no, no, no, no
I can change my mold, no no, no, no, no
I can change my mold, no no, no, no
