As someone who loves experimental writing and flash fiction, I really enjoyed this book. Each section is a vignette that overall paints a picture of the main character's childhood and coming of age. What I especially admire about this book is the way Sandra Cisneros describes things. She has a way of pointing out and expanding on unique details rather than going for the obvious.
