¡Ay, Mija!: My Bilingual Summer in Mexico by Christine Suggs

4.0

Y'all, this got me feeling things! I picked this up pretty much solely based on the title (I could hear it in my grandma's voice), but I knew it would be a memoir that really hit. I know the feeling of being the light-skinned Latina, the young kid of the family that can't understand the conversation, the one doubting their Catholic faith. I still haven't completely figured out how I fit in certain spaces. So I got Christine. <3 Thanks to the author for sharing this with us! And I especially loved the real-life photos at the end!
