The plot and characters of this novel were so dynamic and whole-ly constructed it was impossible to not get lost in their world. An extremely satisfying read with a constructive but not overly clean resolution. Also impressive was the sum total amount of Puerto Rican history I was able to learn without ever feeling like it was dry or pedantic. The narrator shifts were fluidly executed, never appearing too jarring or taking me out of the story I was immersed in.
