Hispanic culture is so rich and diverse and that it is greatly  represented through the writing of Hispanic and Latinx authors. With such a wide variety of traditions and experiences within the Hispanic community, there is no shortage of stories to tell.  Over the past month, many people have celebrated  Hispanic heritage and art, here are a few writers and books that stood out to me.
