It's a tough read subject matter wise but very much needed for immigration discourse within the U.S. Even as someone with Central American background, there was new information in the book. Very well written.

Informative, but it read like the narration of one of those gritty exploitative documentaries that I try to avoid. Also, it was very repetitive, and I feel that it could have been written differently or been 75 pages shorter.
