A review by janel1994
Dominicana by Angie Cruz

5.0

I loved this story of immigration and coming of age story of AnaAna Canción, a 15-year-old girl from a poor family in the Dominican Republic during the 1960s. Ana moves to New York with her new husband who turns out to be a cad. Ana is a compelling character who works through the transactional nature of marriage and duty to her family back home as she starts her life in a new country and find happiness of her own. Highly recommend this book.
