The Dreamer

Another young adult genre read. This one was personally driven by my love of poet, Pablo Neruda. I loved the author's interpretation of what his childhood was like (with creative liberties of course). It seems he had a very stereotypical Hispanic upbringing, where he needed to be more of a man's man, and not a writer, dreamer and collector. Seeing how he breaks the mold of what is expected of him and becoming who he is destined to be is heartwarming.

I wanted to love this one more. There were many spots in the story that I connected with, but on the flip side I was never really grabbed by this book. I think my favorite part of this book was towards the end when the main character starts writing about her family's experiences, particularly with AIDS and the things that were unspoken of at that time. I wish that the writing was more fluid, but I found myself lost sometimes in what was currently happening and what was a flashback.

This book popped into a recommended list after reading after The Haunting of Alejandra, so I had really high hopes. Unfortunately, it just fell flat. I found it hard to follow the two parallel stories of the curandera(s) in the story. The characters were so similar, that it was difficult to differentiate what story belonged to who.
