Crying in the Bathroom
by Erika L. Sánchez
emotional
funny
informative
reflective
medium-paced
In her memoir, Sanchez talks about a range of topics including mental health, romantic and sexual relationships, travel, writing, female beauty standards, the Mexican American experience, and so much more. I really enjoyed hearing about a lot of her experiences, particularly the parts about her time living in other countries, the relationships she has been in, and her experience moving through the world as a Mexican woman. I felt more gripped during some chapters/essays than others but overall I think it was a well-written and fascinating memoir with important things to say. I’m looking forward to diving into her novel I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter next to see what parts of the novel she might have drawn from her own experiences.
