Caramelo by Sandra Cisneros

5.0

The book was marvelous! The way Cisneros pieces her story together is wonderful! At first, the novel appears to be just snippets of stories of Celaya's family but as the story continues those snippets seem to come together and the reader has a better understanding of the family. Cisneros did a marvelous job in not only piecing her story but her usage of language--both english, spanish, mixed spanish, etc.--was phenomenal. She truly represents a girl in between cultures!
