Antes de ser Libres

I am reading the book Antes De Ser Libres by Julia Alvarez. I choose this book because the title and the cover looked interesting to me. The main character so far is Anita. Anita and her family are in Republica Dominicana in their home. Most of her family moved to the United States except her parents and her brother and sister. After they were alone the SIM came and asked for the Garcia family but they weren't there. The SIM looked in Anita's house but they did not find anything. The SIM stayed in the entrance for the parking lot for two weeks. The SIM left because the Washburn family moved into the house of the Garcia's. I like the book so far because the book is interesting. I would recommend it to people that are from the Republica Dominicana. This is a good example of multicultural literature because it gives true information of the culture. MARCO
