Twice a Quinceañera by Yamile Saied Méndez
3.0
funny lighthearted slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Twice a Quinceañeara was a cute romcom, but I had a really difficult time "getting into it". It got to the point where I was forcing myself to open the book and read a chapter before bed. The pacing really picked up and it became less of a chore to read around the halfway point, but that is still half of the book I didn't like. I adored Nadia's family and they truly saved this title from a lower rating. Unless you are a hardcore romance fan, I wouldn't recommend reading this one.
