This was a great story about a Mexican family and how each of the female cousins deal with the events brought to their lives. It‘s very relatable being a Latina myself. There was a lot of lines that made me smile and some that made me feel for the girls the stories were about. I totally recommend 👍🏻👍🏻 #kindleunlimited #winterreads #latinaauthors
pickRepresenting their Mexican heritage, and finding the love they each deserve in a partner are issues that plague them.
I felt like I was reading Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants meets Real Women Have Curves as these women tell their individual stories of searching. When I picked this book as a First Reads pick I didn‘t anticipate the love of this book that I found. Each woman has a specific trait that each woman can relate to.
pickWhat can I say except I LOVED this book! I went in expecting to connect most closely with Selena, the girl not Mexican enough for her family, but too white for work. I did, absolutely, but also found I connected and identified with ALL the Garcia cousins. And I swear, when they were making tamales on Christmas Eve, I could smell the masa and feel the hot, humid air of my mom‘s kitchen. So good. I can‘t wait to read more from this author.
pickYou want to read this. A great story of 4 Latina woman, all cousins, dealing with life. Their greatest support was their great grandma, called Welita. You will love the characters.
My Amazon First Pick for the month. The description: Four cousins navigate love, loss, and the meaning of family over the course of one memorable year in this heartfelt family drama.
My choice of the Prime First Reads for August. Shamelessly picked for the rather lovely cover alone!
