How The Garcia Girls lost Their Accents.

The Book Review

1.) The book i read is calle How The Garcia Girls lost Their Accents.  The author is Julia Alvarez.  

2.) The story is about four sisters Clara the oldest, Yolanda, Sandra, and the youngest Sofia from Dominican Republic growing up in America.  Each daughter has there own problem they have to deal with.  They spent their child years in the Dominican Republic and their college years in America. They are looking back from when they were younger and revisiting their stories.  There father gets intruobke with the secret police and try to help him.  

3.) I like That the story tells different things about each of the sisters.  It tells you about what all the sisters are like and all the different expenses they have in America.  I do not like how it jumps around to all the sisters in a random story.  It confuses me when it jumps to different places.  My favorite part was when

4.)I would recommend this book for people that have good imaginations.  This book would be good for teens and adults.  People from 15 to 40s would like it.  It would be a fun read for people that enjoy books that have stories inside the story.  This is more of a challenge read.  I rate this book three stars.

5.) This book is a good read.  Sometimes things and be a bit confusing but if you can pick things up fast it would be a good book to read.  If you are someone that has move to America you could really relate to this book.
