The author wrote Julia and her family so authentically, it felt like I was her and the Reyes family was my family. I can definitely see this being a classic in the future that the next generation will read in schools and find growth and love in.

I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter is for anybody who has dealt with complicated family members and grief. If you are in the right head-space to read it, I strongly suggest it. However, if you are not in the right mind to read something like this, I'd skip it! Other than that, this is one of those books that I am never going to forget. I haven't read a book that has touched a nerve in me since The Perks of Being A Wallflower. 10/10 would recommend again and again!
