jcpate 's review for:

3.0

Telling the story of her immigrant parents is important, but the writing was just ok. Her informal tone distracted from the meatier parts of the story and I found myself skimming a lot of the passages that weren’t related to her experience as a daughter of undocumented parents. I also felt the book would have had more impact if the information and arguments in the Call to Action had been worked into the memoir.
