I'm putting this in book_drunkard's bookbox. I hope someone enjoys it!

Taking from the box!

I loved this book so much. So much! More than I anticipated. The characters are so well written, and the descriptions of Cuba are evocative. The author really makes Cuba come alive, like a separate character of the book. There are books that are good, that are novels. And then there are books that wonderful, that are literature. NEXT YEAR IN HAVANA is literature, and I’m very eager to find the rest of the author’s books, especially WHEN WE LEFT CUBA, about Elisa’s sister.

My full review, if you're interested, can be read on my blog or on Goodreads.

This will be traveling with dabercro’s Books I’ve Read and Journaled Bookbox. I hope it finds a new reader who will adore it as much I did!
