Anita de Monte Laughs Last by Xochitl Gonzalez

fast-paced

4.0

This story is told through multiple viewpoints and timelines, and eventually they all come together. The audiobook is very well read, with a different actor for each of the three main characters, who all have a unique voice and perspective in the story. I particularly loved Anita, whose portions are filled with rage and vibrancy. Raquel's story is more of a coming of age story, a college student figuring out where she fits in, and learning some things that Anita learned long ago. Jack is extremely unlikeable, but his portions did give extra context, and endeared Anita to me even more. Themes of power dynamics, sexism, feminism, race, and love, with a satisfying ending!
