we never did learn about much of the lost days in this belly heavy chapter. i can’t believe her villain origin story was a fat old ugly gangster when she was 14 who got her pregnant and beat up and she still wanted him back and met him in a love motel. the poor inca, her deep love allowing herself and willing to be dragged into beli’s mess

a lot going on in this book. to much use of the hard r, lot of foot notes and extra details and things that feel misogynistic at times. bad relationships and views on sex. inappropriate as hell. spanglish.
