The House on Mango Street

A little book largely inspired by the life of the author herself. It shows the challenges of growing up in an unwealthy Hispanic-American family/neighbourhood where you are expected to follow certain behaviours and codes to be a woman. I liked how the author used imagery in her writing to bring more life to the prose along with her incorporation of racism, sexism and the identity crisis of the Mexican immigrants and their second-generation children. I liked that the author didn't shy away from bringing up some valid circumstances(which are faced by the poor Latin American second generations) in this book.
On the other hand, I don't think I like the core writing itself cause it sometimes felt too much jumbled up and the paragraph breaks were inconsistent too. I know this is supposed to be written from a perspective of a young girl but I didn't find much difference in the latter portion too.

3. 75 stars from me.
