Reviewed by Noelle BradburyI found it a bit difficult to get into at first because each chapter is a different family members story,but once I got used to it I really enjoyed the book. I wish that there was one more chapter after Flor died and the sisters found her ,and Ona got pregnant. I want to know if she had a baby,if Yadi and Ant get together or if she goes back to the Dominican Republic.
