The content of the book was not always my fave but I loved the style of writing and the blend of Spanish and English. I read this after hearing it acknowledged in the afterward of Nevada, and totally understand how this book would inspire authors to write their stories unapologetically without being afraid to alienate audiences that don’t share the same identity.
Learned a lot about the DR and Dominican diaspora!
