" This book is about six friends, that despite all of their differences (and trust me they are very different) maintain their friendship. The book shows the struggle they face in their lives dealing with everything from their love lives to their professional careers all on top of being Latinas in America! While there are some issues that I could relate to I just couldn't jump right into it. It was an ok and I would recommend this to friends but only if I felt that it fit them. "

" A Latina "Waiting to Exhale." I enjoyed the book and the author shows promise. I think it may have been better with one fewer character, so that the author could expound more on the remaining women's problems. "

" Great beach/summer read- This is a book about the beauty of real friendship between very different women. This is not great literature, nor is it intended to be. Alisa is the Plum Sykes/Sophie Kinsella of the Latin community. The characters are stereotypical and are meant to be- it makes it easy to identify with/ understand and or appreciate the girls. If you are a fun-loving woman- you can appreciate this book. If you are a Hispanic/Latina woman- you must read this book. "

" Another book I never would have picked up if it wasn't in the free section. I laughed through the entire book. It's about a group of 20-something Hispanic women, and their different views and ways of life in the U.S. Very good read. "

" While the book does not aspire to any deep or aiding look at the struggles of Latina women in the US, it also does not shy away from these topics. Don't be put off by the cover, while a fast paced read, this is a book which has its serious poignant moments.
