This was a hard book for me. Her writing style is tough to take in. Which is intentional. The material is also tough to take in. It’s meant to put you in the position that she has been in for much of her life. You’re confused, it’s not linear, it’s poems, it’s stories, it’s real life it’s fiction and it’s Spanish and English. The mixture made it hard for me to read and get through. But I’m happy I read it and I’m excited to discuss it with friends because I feel like there’s a lot I probably missed. Her explanations were so vivid and so much detail though so I appreciated the look into what a different life could be.
