The narration was phenomenal. I loved that each author got to narrate their own part. I think that brought life to the book, them being able to tell their own stories verbally.
It was a challenging read no doubt, but it was an important one.

Read this. It is a collection of 15 different essays/memoirs/stories from Latinx authors. I don't really know what to say except that I stopped every few pages to discuss things with whoever happened to be near (my husband or myself usually). I've never read anything like it and I believe it to be a must read.
