Reviews for Tesoro

"""This is that bittersweet moment in the process of growing up—seeing the humanity of your loved ones, their choices, your existence and the role all of these things play in your family. This is the moment that leads you to take a harder look at yourself and how you have ultimately been shaped by everything that came before you. This is the moment, these are the feelings; this is Yesika Salgado’s Tesoro."" —NPR Books"
