It's true amazing what people will do at a chance of a better life for their family. My heart aches for the characters and I was constantly scared for them. The fear they lived in. The story is good. I didn't love the writing style and format and switch of pov wasn't easy to follow along

I really want to give this book 5 stars. The story about a family torn apart by borders is truly worth reading, and it’s a very emotional book. There were some truly beautiful passages retelling Colombian myths and describing the various characters’ feelings about their mixed status. Still, I just felt like something was missing. Maybe I just didn’t connect due to the majority 3rd person narration, although I loved the few chapters in 1st person. This is a heartbreaking book, but there is also so much hope to it. The family never stops fighting for each other.

I really enjoyed it, finished it in a day, the audiobook is amazing but I did feel it was a bit rushed at the end, I felt like everything was solved in 10-20 pages. I would've liked some trigger warnings for rape and assault on this one.
 Reading this as a Colombian? I really think it did justice to my country
