Don't Ask Me Where I'm from by Jennifer De Leon

5.0

This book was phenomenal, Truly. Being Latina I could not relate more with Liliana and her life. I understood how she felt out of place and how she judged people before they could judge her. This book was really eye-opening and I learned so much. This book needs to be read and people need to see this to truly understand things from our point of view. . I learned about the Guatemalan Genocide which I had not learned about in school and had no clue about.
This made me proud to be who I am, proud from where I come from and where I live, and gave me the strength to be able to navigate through racism like Lili did. This book highlighted the struggles I still go through in High school and issues worldwide. I have so much more to say that I cannot put into words. I Highly recommend this book!
