Lena Thurber’s Reviews > Esperanza Rising > Status Update

I was surprised at just how much my lip curled with disgust to read about the tio’s scheming. For some reason a tragedy that pushes Esperanza’s family to the US is fine, but a tragedy follow by malicious people taking advantage of Esperanza and her mother? I can’t stand it.
I feel like there’s something to analyze here. I can’t quite put my finger on it.

A little bit of professional development :)
Also a low stakes read for finals so I don’t get too sucked in (but heaven knows I can’t cope without a book of some kind)
