On the dawn of September 16, 1810, a priest named Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla rang the church bell in Dolores and shouted the words that would change history: “¡Viva México!”
💚 September 16 is not just a holiday.
🤍It is proof that nations are built by ordinary people with extraordinary bravery.
❤️ It is a reminder that Mexico‘s spirit cannot be conquered.

so-so3⭐️ I really tried to understand what this book was about and while it was an interesting read, I really didn‘t understand it. I am really interested to hear what others in this #Canadianlit #bookclub I am a part of will think of the book. #2025 #fiction #sciencefiction #speculative #historicalfiction #fiction #canadian #mexico
so-soGritty and brutal. The words get the job done but with no beauty.
pickThis novel brought to mind what ICE is currently doing in this country. The story is heartbreaking with a mother and son trying desperately to escape the horrors of Cartel violence and certain death. Many people have been lost, killed and broken while making this or similar journeys. 4.75/5⭐️

Border patrol pulled over a woman very near my work this morning. I'm sure it was absolutely necessary to have 2 border patrol cars, 2 county cops, and a state cop all there for a 5 foot tall woman and her toddler child. What a production. I'm so angry. 🤬🤬🤬

We do not care that we volunteered to help a friend pack up to move. We do not care about two broken nails, a sore back and pain in too many other places to mention. We also do not care that we broke two tiny serving dishes as there were at least 10 more (maybe 20 as we lost track after hours of bubble wrapping).
