The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School by Sonora Reyes

5.0

There is nothing I love more than a novel that hits too close to home. It had everything it needed to make my heart ache: a Hispanic family, a queer daughter, a family dynamic that needed help and so many feelings. Coming from a Mexican family, I was also inserted into catholic beliefs and the ultimate machismo dynamic. Being a daughter in a Mexican family can be tough, but to also be queer and afraid to come out, is nothing short of pure horror. I hated how much Yami would put up with in order to protect Cesar, but it's so true and touching. I loved how she would still think about all the good things she loved about her parents, even with all the hurt they would bring her. I loved reading her family grow into something beautiful, regardless of the person they had to lose.
