I forgot I downloaded the audio and e-book but had a bunch of time during my flights to listen and read. A great debut with an equally gorgeous cover. You really sympathize / empathize with Vi as she struggles to know where her heart belongs ( Colombia or New York?) Loved the food descriptions as well as the descriptions of an actual coastal city in this South American country. Abuela was also at the heart of this novel and you could really feel her spirit throughout the book.
