Short but intense read. After having a course in psychology and sociology, it is fascinating that so many topics are covered. Will read again and annotate.

I liked this book more than I thought I would. The main character struggles through many emotions and difficult circumstances and I find her relatable throughout. Lots of Spanish throughout so if you are not fluent, I would recommend have the ability to translate near. Most can be discerned from context but even with a fair amount of Spanish classes, I still had to look quite a few things up.

Good story overall. Plot was engaging but also fairly predictable. I don't think this is one I will read again, but I did enjoy it.

Read in one sitting. Captivating and really gets you thinking. I will be returning to this book to annotate. I feel like there is a lot more I can get out of this book by delving deeper.
