Free book (kindle) for honest review.

Julian a Cuban native grew up during the Castro take over. His father had to hide all of their family jewelers and transfer them into the U.S.A banks. Julian parents send him to a Madrid Spain to establish his Visa to go to New York. Julian had trouble adapting to his new life from working, love life. securing his family possession, and his family. His father nenevr care about him until his mother passed. Julian lived his life control by his father and never got to spread his own wings.

This book is good. I really hate the cover. Easy read. I really want to give this book a 3. I felt it was blend. My reason I gave it a 4 because I can relate to julian living a concrete life and I didn't spend my wings. He always taking care of everyone else but not himself. I do love the history formats. I kinda wish the Castro rolled more into Julian life in NY.
