Post 1- First Impression

          My first impression when recieving this book was that it was going to be a cultural one. The title How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents automatically gives the reader the idea that the cultural aspects that are present in the book are going to play an important role in developing the story. By also reading the title one can assume that the book is going to be one based on the Spanish culture and ideals ,being that Garcia is typically a last name  linked to the hisapnic culture. From reading the back othe reader can seee that the bond between the three Gracia sisters ,Carla Sandra, Yolanda, and Sofia, is going to be the gule that holds the story together. This book seems particullary interesting to teenage girls being that given the description on the back it apppears as if the novel is going to address the struggles and occurences that not only foriegeners come across, but that all teenage girls do. I am hesistant in making a judgement on whether I will enojy the novel yet, because these assumptions that i am making are derived only from the details given in the outer tellings of the novel. From first impression it appears as if the book will be one that has a good story plot and that takes account for many different aspects of life so i am interested in getting to dive into it.
