When Eric unexpectedly shows up at the Argentine Club-the heart of the Argentine community in southern California-he starts a series of events that will bring these two families closer than ever. New relationships are formed and old ones are put to the test, as everyone must learn how to balance different cultures-and different dreams-without hurting those they love. (Goodreads.com)
This book comes out 9/25 and $13.99 in paperback.
This was chick lit with Latina influence. It was a fast read but I loved the themes of dreams and Independence. There was also 7 reading guide questions in English and Spanish. There was also honoring parents traditions/culture and being more modern.
Another theme was honest communication like when Victoria/Eric and what happens in their friendship or Carmen and wanting to change her major to something she loves or Jaqueline/Victor and this miscommunication over money or lack of relationship.
The Argentine Club was where many things happened and it did help foster community spirit and help the community with those trying to remember their history. I wished I had somewhere like this growing up.
