One thing that I liked about “The Book of Unknown Americans” is how it gave voice to a number of characters to unfold their struggles in their own distinct way. I felt that it interestingly depicted the different cultures that make up Latin America. The handful of Spanish words here and there significantly added to the social environment that the author wants to immerse the reader in.

Not that I necessarily disliked something, but I would’ve liked for a chapter to be included for Maribel herself. Although it  might’ve been a good strategy for the author to leave us eager to read Maribel’s thoughts,  simply one before the book ends on Arturo would’ve been interesting.

Because I don’t have any recent good quality pictures of myself, I’ve attached a picture where I’m holding an apple really nicely.
