Bindle Punk Bruja by Desideria Mesa
5.0
This is the 1920's book I feel like I've been waiting for my whole life. I usually find that I get bored with historical fiction but Desi Mesa did such a great job with this.
The representation being treated so normal, but not erasing how dangerous it was to be different at the time, is something I see so rarely in historical fiction. This is a story that involves the mob (something I'm painfully disinterested in most of the time) but it was just the right amount to show their influence at the time without being ABOUT the mob.
Honestly, I loved this way more than anticipated. Thank you so much Desi!
Plus you know I love mixed rep
