First three chapters

Today in class, I read the first three chapters of In the Time of the Butterflies. The first three chapters, each narrated by a different Mirabal sister, went by very quickly. It might seem because each chapter is written by a different sister in different situations, and sometimes not in chronological order, that it would be difficult to follow; this is certainly not the case. The different stories are flawlessly seemed together, creating, so far, a clear picture of all the Mirabal sisters. The movie takes a different approach and follows Minerva primarily as you can see in the trailer.


Most of the time, it's a chore to read books for class. However, In the Time of the Butterflies has been an exception so far. I'm anxious to read on, despite the fact that I already know what happens.
