Family Lore by Elizabeth Acevedo

Did not finish book. Stopped at 39%.

It was interesting at the beginning, but then it just went on and on and on, and meandered and just lost me (not because I couldn't understand...it was just a bit..boring?). The three main tias are interesting, but the rest of them are really 🤷‍♀️.

I may pick this up again in the future, but I forced myself to stop reading it because I wasn't enjoying it and if I pushed through I would have gotten into a reading slump.
