I love reading books by Latine authors! This was a great story and representation of matriarchal families in Latine culture. However, I wished the book would have focused a bit more and delved more into it instead of adding a love story. I honestly did not care for either of the romance story lines, they both felt a little flat to me. I was more interested in the story behind Veronica’s gma and mom.
