Description
“A Woman's life isn't easy”
What an amazing story. As I read the story I kept thinking about the story, "Water for Chocolate," because of how intense the story was, and how realistic the characters are. I also found that even though the characters life were very hard they found many moments to be joyous about. They found love and work that made them fulfilled and they dealt with all problems the best they could. I especially love Luz talent to see the future in reading coffee grounds and tea leaves and Diego's talent with snakes, it made them feel closer to the earth. And no matter what, they took care of each other. And I loved the cousin Lizette because she knew what she wanted and she went for it and she knew who she is.
I only found a few places hard to read because of the injustice that fell upon these characters because the color of their skin, pretty sad that we still deal with this now.
I want to thank Random House Publishing Group - Random House, One World and NetGalley for a copy of this amazing story about courage and tenacity in the early 1900's.
