I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter
by Erika L. Sánchez
I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter was so unique. I loved the way it handled grief, depression, anxiety, etc. and how therapy was ACTUALLY ADDRESSED in this book. Most times they go, "Oh, therapy is bad because of this." However, it's effective for some people. Therapy isn't a monster.
HOWEVER
Julia could be a bit unbearable sometimes, and often times, Lorena. It just made me want to throw the book across the room. Some topics could've been handled with a little bit more grace, I believe, but otherwise, it was great.
It felt very immersive into Mexican culture and the expectations Julia's parents had.
Overall, it was a pretty solid book that I enjoyed, however, it had a few flaws.
