Wild Tongues Can't Be Tamed: 15 Voices from the Latinx Diaspora by Saraciea J. Fennell
3.5
3.5 stars
I’m new to anthologies and still figuring out how I feel about them. This one was more educational than entertaining, and I’ll also say this book wasn’t written for me since I don’t identify as Latinx. That said, I can see how powerful hearing these mini biographies would be for Latinx teens and it will be one I recommend for those wanting to diversify their own experiences and seeking to learn more about the complexities and nuances of the Latinx experiences. I really enjoyed seeing the versatility of all the different authors stories and POVs.
