In honor of Hispanic Heritage month, I'll be sharing books I have read, plan to read, and books I believe that people should consider adding to their lists. Despite being the fastest growing ethnic group in the U.S., I've seen a lack of Latino representation. (1/?)

Ask yourself this, when was the last time you read a book for leisure and the author was of Hispanic/Latino origin? Are you educated on Latino experiences within the U.S. context and outside? (2/?)

The first book I'll be sharing is one of my personal favorites, The Distance Between Us by Reyna Grande. It depicts the immigration experience through the eyes of a child (Grande) and how her parents migration north has affected her childhood. (3/?)

A sequel to her memoir is A Dream Called Home. If you enjoyed The Distance Between Us, you’ll love this one too. (4/?)

I added a linktree in my bio with links to get free PDFs of the books I mention in this thread. (5/?)
