A belated well-wishing for your reading challenge in 2024, Jami! You're doing great :)

Did you enjoy It Would Be Night in Caracas? Considering I was born in Venezuela, I've been meaning to pick it up ever since it was released, but then I keep "forgetting", so this might just be the push I needed ;D

Best of luck on your reading journey!
