The Cheater's Guide to Love by Junot Díaz

4.0

Wow. Definitely some scathing Latino (especially Dominican) truths here. A short story, yes - but definitely a long history of where the points of this story come from. I wish reputations like that of Yunior weren't so but Junot Diaz kept it real. I was conflicted with feelings of offense *AND* my "mhmm, yeah that's right. de verdad!" attitude. Can't knock it when you know it, right? Anyway, I enjoyed the spanglish thrown into the writing, but I can understand how it can seem less than entertaining to non-native speakers. More Diaz, please!
