In the Time of the Butterflies

Summary: Inspirational
Review: In the Time of the Butterflies stands as one of the best books ive ever had the pleasure of reading. I indentified with each of the sisters, not only as a latina, but as a women. As I read, I felt as if I really knew these women, as if they were my friends, confiding to me in letters. This book, based on a true story, inspires and the 3 mariposa sisters should never be forgotten. After I finished it, I immediately searched for more information on the sisters, and came upon pictures of the actual Minerva, Patria, and Maria Teresa. Beautiful women inside and out and truely breathtaking. I encourage everyone to read their heroic story.
