Frida in America is a non-ficition book following Frida and her time in America and how that time evolved and affected her as an artist!

I always found Frida’s life fascinating and interesting. She was a spectacular woman, that had to a live in a time where being a woman and an artist was not easy. She dwelled into subjects like sex, race, fertility and culture. There is many sides of her life I did not know, and I’m very happy I do now. However, reading a nonfiction was very dry for me that is not used to it. There was some parts that really flew over my head, and in my arc version at least there was no pictures of the painting/drawings that the author wrote about, which made it kind of hard to follow (and I had to google them myself). I don’t know if they are in the finished version of the book though. Overall I do feel like I learned a lot, but the writing was very very flat, which made me not what to pick up that book sometimes because I was bored. Though some parts was as I said very interesting! I don’t regret reading it and I would recommend it for anyone who is interested! 3/5 stars.
