Once Upon a Quinceañera by Monica Gomez-Hira

2.0

I received this copy via Edelweiss from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. The drama in this story was very engaging but the story fell flat for me. The writing felt amateur. Sometimes the story was unclear because of the inconsistent transition between past and present events. I couldn't sympathize with Carmen as she felt too judgemental and had little to no character development. The remaining characters were just one dimensional with little depth. The one thing that bugged me the most was the font. The use of all caps too frequently was a major turn off for me. I expected to learn so much about a Quinceañera but it was given too little focus and the drama felt too much at times. Overall I would recommend this story if someone is looking for an engaging drama.
