Trying to get a bit of outdoor reading time in before it starts to rain. I know little about the Spanish Civil War and the Children of Morelia. I expect this will be a hard read but I'm looling forward to learning about this part of history.

pickThis was a heartbreaking story of a young boy and his siblings on how they tried to survive without their parents during the Spanish Civil War. Though this is a fictional story, the author stated that it was inspired by true accounts. We learn about the children of Spain, the war in Spain, how Mexico got involved, and what happened after the war. Very sad stuff.

Last night, my husband and I celebrated our first date anniversary at this awesome Spanish restaurant called Cafe Sevilla. We did their Journey through Spain menu. We tried different tapas, had sangria, had paella, and dessert. It was all yummy!
I am still reading my book for Spain. Fingers cross that I finish it this weekend.

so-soPresentation of a portion of history I knew little about & found quite interesting. Decent writing & a comfortably paced narrative with a lot of historical information. The characters were likable & the plight of the family was well-documented, but I had difficulty becoming emotionally invested or connected to the plot. I simply found myself underwhelmed. This was not a bad read by any means & certainly has merit, just not as powerful as I wanted.
Should I get the English or Spanish version I CANT DECIDE 😆😆😆
Updated: I ended up buying the English one. I figured I might not know Spanish enough to read an adult novel yet
