Oscar Wao

I have been reading the book The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz. It is about a nerdy Dominican boy growing up in Northern New Jersey, and his relationship with his family. It is interwoven with history about the Dominican Republic under the the rule of the dictator Trujillo. It is an interesting story to read because it switches viewpoints. I like books like this because they give different perspectives and make you think in new ways.
