Once Upon a Quinceanera, was a interesting book. I'm not sure I would recommend it, because I didn't really like most of the book. I if you like to learn about different culture and traditions, then this is the book for you. This book contains many examples of how traditions from an other country is passed on to others. This book also contains a lot of information about a Quinceanera in details. I learned a lot when reading this book. I recommend this book because you learn a lot, and it gives you a better understanding on what a Quinceanera, really is.
I would want people to read this book to learn more about how a traditional Quinceanera, has changed over the years because more and more people are immigrating here and celebrating it here in the United States. I would recommend this book because, the book is not just about a Quinceanera but, immigration and the hardships families deal with when arriving in a new country. When reading this book you'll have so many connections to the character that you'll feel as if the author is writing about you.
I wouldn't recommend this book to everyone, I think that I would recommend this book to girls. Once Upon a Quinceanera, talks a lot about teen age girls, and what they go through. Mixed in with family, tradition, culture, immigration and much more. Not everyone who reads this book is going to like it, but I do know that people who read it are going to learn something new.
Overall I didn't find this book to interesting, but most parts of the book I could relate to, and a lot of parts made me think about different traditions and different people, that are out there. This book sends a message to migrated families and teen age girls. I recommend this book, and hope people learn or understand the message it sends.
