Therefore, it wouldn't make sense if she weren't in Mexico. This book would not make sense at all in a different setting! I feel like the main focus of the book is Lala tracing her heritage through her grandmother and connecting to her Mexican roots. For example, when Soledad goes to Aunt Fina's house, the description seems focused of Fina's disorganized and distressed character, but through this I am able to understand the setting. I think the author's description of characters is more precise than the setting, but the description of characters helps the reader visualize the things going on. Also, she encompasses the change of setting, being both American and Mexican. She talks about the change of setting (from the United States to Mexico) as a family tradition.
