A review by kadomi
The Red Umbrella by Christina Diaz Gonzalez

3.0

Total fluff that was an enjoyable read, but lacked any sort of depth. Our protagonist ist Lucia, a 14 year old girl during the Cuban Revolution. Her parents send her and her younger brother to the US.

That's about it. I would have loved to learn more about actual historical events but the book focused on the fluff of every day life. Which was alright but also a bit baffling. A wasted opportunity.

2.5 stars for me.
