I love the content, but the writing set me over the EDGE sometimes
funny hopeful sad fast-paced

bueno no voy a decir que es un libro malo, a lo mejor lo leí muy adelante en mi vida y por eso no me gustó. La verdad es que me lo terminé de leer por terca, porque no me gusta dejar libros a medias pero me pareció una de las lecturas más tediosas que he hecho en mucho tiempo.
Nunca entendí el propósito del libro, no entendí cual era el evento principal, es como un diario, una narración sin acontecimientos de un día a día.
puede ser que estando mas chiquita me hubiera gustando pero me pareció terrible a esta edad.

I don't usually leave text reviews, but I had a hard time slogging through this. My mind kept drifting to other things I could be doing. I read it as part of a project that uses novels to show how American history felt, and I respect its place in creating a new genre of literature, etc., but it was hard for me to pay attention because I couldn't relate to anyone in it. I kept thinking, "How can you complain about being poor if you have a housekeeper?"

I read and annotated a copy of this book as a gift for my sister, and I loved every minute of it. This book is so precious and gentle and thoughtful and kind. Of course elements are dated, but the sentiment is all so lovely. Definitely worth a read, no matter your age.
