Often times I take at least an hour or two to pick out books I want to read so I can enjoy what I read. This is one of those books I avoid when I spend that time searching. This is a testimony that I should keep doing that. But the ending was okay. The fluff was ok if you consider there to be any.

I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter is for anybody who has dealt with complicated family members and grief. If you are in the right head-space to read it, I strongly suggest it. However, if you are not in the right mind to read something like this, I'd skip it! Other than that, this is one of those books that I am never going to forget. I haven't read a book that has touched a nerve in me since The Perks of Being A Wallflower. 10/10 would recommend again and again!
