Not the book I was
expecting, about a young Hispanic nerd in NY. That's how it starts, but it soon
expands to cover the tragic history of a Dominican family in the 20th Century
and the horrors of the Trujillo regime. Really enjoyable and learnt a lot about
Dominican history. It was William's 4th birthday at the weekend and we had a
big party. He's a real handful at the moment. It's lovely as he's talking far
more and loves to sing and mimics his brother and sister. He wants to go
'geocachin' all the time, despite not really understanding it. Hard to believe he starts school in
September, he seems so young!
