The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros
4.0
An easy read from a Latina author.
I really enjoyed this book as an audio that i decided i needed to read it to fully understand what these collection of stories were really about. It was easy to read and as a mom to a toddler stopping wherever i had to stop really helped to not feel as though i was going to lose my place. I enjoyed the topics and found myself feeling sad at some of these stories because some are truly heartbreaking.
This book is for someone who understands our culture, who understands that our parents tried their best even if it wasn’t perfect (no parent will ever be), this is for the ones who feel as though they are missing a part of their culture being so far away from their roots, the ones who want a glimpse of what it’s like being a daughter in the Latino community. Atleast that’s what I believe.
