How the García Girls Lost Their Accents by Julia Alvarez

emotional funny hopeful slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

Maybe because I've been over-familirized with the "coming to America" story, but this book dragged for me. I could see people really liking it but me personally found it so similar to other immigration stories but less gripping.
