3.5/5 arc gifted by the publisher

short stories of Mexican women tacking different aspects of life across socioeconomic classes, from those in poverty to drug lords and assassins. While the women in each story are in various financial situations, they all face violence perpetrated by men. Of course, one's ability to tackle these problems is associated with money, but it's still heartbreaking to realize that no woman is safe when men get away with their crimes. The writing is straightforward and sometimes more conversational, so readers who don't like swearing might find it too much in specific stories. My favorites are Yuliana, Playing with Fire, and La Huesera
