jgurniak 's review for:

The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros
3.0

I'm sure this is a charming book to those who enjoy this style. I have nothing against the story or the writing, I just don't usually enjoy the vignette style of storytelling. For me, I feel like it doesn't give me a chance to learn anything about the characters, and so I don't come to care for them. But if you enjoy novels told more as a series of short stories than as a standard novel, I think you will enjoy this one.
