Title: If i could give it 0 stars I would
Review: This book was horrible! Santiago exoticizes Puerto Rican culture. The proper way to eat a guayaba? Gimme a break! And the ending of the book is pathetic: she gets into Harvard and therefore is successful. Nothing else needs to be said. Oh please. As a Puerto Rican who went to an Ivy League school there is more to life that getting a diploma from a prestigious school and it certainly is no guarantee of success. Santiago is clearly capitalizing on the current thirst for 'ethnic' books in this country (just look at the title). For EXCELLENT writing and a more realistic view of life on the island I recommend Ana Lydia Vega, Magali Garcia Ramis, Rosario Ferre, Edgardo Rodriguez-Julia, Luis Rafael Sanchez.
