It's that time of year in Chicago – when you can ask someone, "What are you reading," and be able to say, "I'm reading that, too!" There's even #OBOC for kids. Puerto Rican culture is the theme. Lots of free events in Oct. including music, book discussions & film. You know what I'll be reading.
Loved Olga Dies Dreaming and the accompanying #onebookonechicago film and discussion last night, esp after just finishing The Battle of Lincoln Park. Kudos, CPL 📚🏠❤️ #OBOC
She felt about her mother much as she felt about Puerto Rico itself: mysterious and unknown entities. Her only certainty about either was that they, somehow, were both a part of Olga.

Olga noted how differently the garment communicated on their lithe, flat bodies. How it bathed them in effortless elegance. She noted how much she felt herself in a costume for a life she could never have.

Excited to get my copy and read along, and wow, great events planned on housing justice and more at ChiPubLib #OBOC

I've been thinking about this book a lot lately... how I obtained it, where I read it, meeting the author at the Harold Washington...
