The Powerful Reads by Latinx Authors That Changed This Bookstagrammer's Life

"The last book that made me cry was Finding Latinx ($16, originally $17) by Paola Ramos. She writes about the vast spectrum of the Latinx community living throughout the nation that she has gotten to know through interviews. Towards the end of the book, Ramos writes about an undocumented drag queen's talent performance for the Gay America pageant. The way she described the performance (which I won't spoil because you should read the book) brought tears to my eyes. I deeply saw myself in that performance and saw my community. I saw all the ways in which we just want to be seen and acknowledged."
