Loving Che by Ana Menéndez

3.0

This book was...mildly interesting. The writing is beautiful, but that's just about all I have to say for the book. Maybe it's the kind of thing you won't understand unless you're Cuban. I just felt very detached, never really connecting with the narrator or her mother. [a:Roxane Gay|3360355|Roxane Gay|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1407278304p2/3360355.jpg]'s novel, [b:An Untamed State|27865163|An Untamed State|Roxane Gay|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1448023315s/27865163.jpg|26127435], about a woman's tangled relationship with Haiti was more powerful and poignant for me than this book about a Cuban exile.

The pictures were fun to look at, though!
