Woman Hollering Creek

I just finished reading Sandra Cisneros' collection of short stories Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories.  I really am not a fan of short story collections, but wanted to give this book a try.  I liked some, and found others dull.  I suppose that is a normal reaction to a collection of this sort.  I really liked "Woman Hollering Creek," "Bien Pretty," and "Little Miracles, Kept Promises."  It was difficult when it switched to Spanish; I only know a little Spanish.  I had to put some stuff into Google translate in order to read it, but not that much.  I liked The House on Mango Street much better.  I still have Caramelo to read.
