Bless Me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya

4.0

I absolutely loved this book as a kid. It helped me survive the summer that my grandmother died. It was also the only summer that saw me finish my English homework long before school started again.

Boring, slow, didn’t get any of the “coming of age”, really vague spiritualism.

It did t get interesting until the end. I didn't really see where this story was going. Not sure what the kid and Ultima had to do with anything.
