I went into this book with little to no expectations after a month long reading slump. I read this on Audible and was pleasantly surprised at how much I ended up liking it! 

There's a friends to enemies to fake dating trope. Not a trope I tend to like, but I actually enjoyed this one. The first few chapters are kind of slow, but it really picks up at about chapter 3-4 and keeps getting better and better as it unfolds. 

I LOVED the background setting and intermingle of interracial culture with food and drinks. As well as the mix of both English, Spanglish and Spanish accents of the characters. The narrator was phenomenal! 

It does tackle some heavy topics of childhood and generational trauma but does it in a way that doesn't weigh you down and keeps the overall vibe lighthearted. 
It also follows some typical Latin family stereotypes but also seeks to correct them. 

Overall this was an unexpected, but very fun read. Sentimental and deep while being lightheaded, full of warmth, spice and heart!
