“While we ate, Mami sat as far from us as she could. Omar couldn‘t get off work, I kept slurring, even after Leidy kicked and kicked my shin under the table each time I forced out the excuse. Dante crawled around on the floor next to her, moving from cousin to cousin, begging to be lifted. I kicked Leidy back and said it anyway - Next year, you‘ll see - to Neyda, to people who‘d been whispering about my mom‘s outburst, her door-slamming . . .”
so-soA wanted to love this one because I know a lot of people do. But it was just ok for me. Spoiled rich kids making poor decisions without consideration of the people they are hurting.
pickRead it for the excellent dialogue. So fun. Highly recommend to anyone who loves eavesdropping.

I tend to enjoy the beginning of true crime books because it deals with the life and history of the players and sets up the context of the crime. I invariably lose interest when the investigation narrative starts. The same was true for this book as well.
