The Best Spilt Frijoles ever!!! August 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was the greatest. I want to buy copies for Christmas gifts..I was laughing, agreeing, crying, and laughing again. Drink Cultura was just as awesome, I wish I could meet you in person, and have you sign my book...Que Viva la Raza..Y que Dios los bengiga con mas y mas...
A book worth reading that will give insight on chicanos. January 6, 1999 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
When i opened up the book I had zero expectations because i had never heard of this author. As I started reading I found myself laughing out loud. I nervously looked around to check if anyone was around. Its that kind of book. As a mexican I found I had alot of things in common with many parts of this book. I feel very strongly that all latinos will be able to relate with some or most of this book's content. I really recommend this book to everyone. If you are not a latino or chicano you will be able to enjoy a slice of my culture as well as the culture of chicanos. I would frequently show tidbits of the book to my friends. This book has the right mixture of humor, inside jokes, facts, and deals with some serious issues. A book to be read more than once.
