Lo que más me gustö de este libro fueron los capítulos en que el autor explicó la historia de los hispanos y las luchas que hemos pasado. El autor relaciona esto con las luchas que Jesús tuvo a lo largo de su vida. La mezcla de historia y cristianismo es interesante y recomendaría este libro a cualquiera que quiera leer sobre cómo la religión afecta la identidad de un grupo de personas.

Can relate to so many of the author’s descriptions of the tias and primas in her life.

I can so relate to Julia's plight - being 1st generation American with very strict parents as well, a lot of what she goes through I went through. For example, wanting to go hang out with friends and being told "if you're bored, go wash the dishes". So. Frustrating. This book is taking straight back to my teenage-dom.

Wow. This woman is BOLD. This audiobook jumps right into the action and doesn’t hold back. I started it today and have already listened to almost 40% of it. It’s that gripping. From calling up celebrities to stealing straight from banks, Smith is a testament to what people can do when they don’t accept limitations.

Never let it be said that this man isn’t a DETAILED writer. Everything is laid out on the page. On the one hand, it makes this book bulky and a little tedious to get through, on the other hand, it’s sometimes interesting to see the amount of work that went into certain decisions and his thoughts on certain events.

Former president Obama gives such a detailed account of how he became president and came upon the decisions he made. Although it’s interesting reading about things I saw play out a few years ago from a different perspective, sometimes I feel that the text is very wordy and overly descriptive.

He is very detailed with his account of how he entered politics and rose to become a presidential candidate…
