It's no secret my big love for this book. I don't know how but it achieves to expel from me foreign feelings, and at the same time it fills me in a way that every time I close my eyes, can't stop thinking about it. This book gets me. It makes me its friend for a day or two because it is so short, but its aftertaste lingers for weeks.

And how can I love a story about a girl who lacks of identity and doesn't belong anywhere? Well, for the simple fact that my identity is in scarcity. And as I read

And how can I love a story about a girl who lacks of identity and doesn't belong anywhere? Well, for the simple fact that my identity is in scarcity. And as I read this book, I understand that sometimes is okay to feel this way, without identification. That is okay to be picked up by the arms of solitude but that it is necessary to learn to grow in them and to start putting the first pieces of this puzzle called life.

So this book did all this to me. I'm a little mess now.

Me encontré tan identificada. Yo sé lo que es crecer con una familia de mente cerrada. Sé lo que es la angustia del proceso de formar tus propias opiniones, tu propia identidad, aparte pero muy influenciada por ellos. Sé lo que es estar confundida y sola y no saber quién eres. Sé lo que es vivir sabiendo que no compartes las filosofías más esenciales de tu familia y darte cuenta que, a la hora de la verdad, no importa. Nunca me he enamorado de mi tío, pero leer este libro fue como mirarme en un Me encontré tan identificada. Yo sé lo que es crecer con una familia de mente cerrada.

Lo lei en la escuela superior y lo volvi a leer. Me encanta porque presenta lo que es ser puertorriqueno. Donde nos ensenan que todo lo "bueno" viene de afuera (Estados Unidos y Europa) y que lo de la isla es "malo". Es triste saber que los mismos puertorriquenos no sabemos nada de nosotros mismos.

I loved this book! Just like my friend Edhriz, whom I love with all my heart, I laughed with this book. It also opened my eyes to the many different thoughts and impressions of the late 1950's in Puerto Rico. The main character's family has a lot money compared to the average family by that time. The book says they are not rich, but en route, but clearly these people enjoy life with all its commodities and have not seen a day of hunger.

Un libro bien puertorriqueño y no en lo típico que se ve cuando se habla de literatura puertorriqueña. La primera vez que veo buchipluma en un escrito, con lenguaje, ideas, conceptos y conversaciones típicas del área metropolitana. Perdí la cuenta de cuántas veces lo que leía sonaba a algo que había vivido. Desde críticas a la estadidad e independencia, del mundo en limbo que es la identidad puertorriqueña, de los comentarios políticos, la ignorancia religiosa, la libertad de años de adolescente Un libro bien puertorriqueño y no en lo típico que se ve cuando se habla de literatura puertorriqueña. La primera vez que veo buchipluma en un escrito, con lenguaje, ideas, conceptos y conversaciones típicas del área metropolitana. Perdí la cuenta de cuántas veces lo que leía sonaba a algo que había vivido. Desde críticas a la estadidad e independencia, del mundo en limbo que es la identidad puertorriqueña, de los comentarios políticos, la ignorancia religiosa, la libertad de años de adolescente y el peso de la adultez. Es un cuento bien real, desde lo que hablan, hasta cómo hablan, hasta lo repentino que son los momentos de la vida y como alguna gente llega y se va como un abrir y cerrar de ojos y sabiendo o sin saberlo dejan huellas profundas en nuestra vida. Felices días, Tío Sergio es un libro BIEN puertorriqueño y de seguro no sea algo que mucha gente pueda relacionarse porque hace falta tener esa identidad, esos complejos, esas dudas, incertidumbres y frustraciones de alguien que ha sido afligido por el insularismo para entenderlo, pero cualquier persona que sea de la Isla y lo lea encontrará varios momentos en donde dirá "coño, es que somos así." Y eso vale oro. Se le quita una estrella por errores de gramática en esta edición, por el requisito de puertorriqueñidad para entenderlo bien y porque el cambio al final fue tan súbito que puede ser comentario sobre cómo es la vida pero parte se siente incompleto... el cual pudo haber sido la intención. ...more

This is one of my new favourite books! I didn't know what to expect at first, but as soon as I got through the first one or two pages I was totally enchanted by the story. I felt Ramis was able to portray how a child thinks with such vividness that it was like I too was back stuck on a porch with my cousins one long hot afternoon. Maybe because it was a Caribbean story as well! One of my most eye-opening reading experiences to date was James Joyce's Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and this This is one of my new favourite books!

Felices Dias is terrifyingly frank about emotions like loneliness and not fitting in. In one sentence: the pains of growing up in a typical West Indian household, sprinkled with some mambo music and sublime sunset descriptions to spice it up! ...more

Puerto Rican girl moves from historical home to a new home. Uncle Sergio is a mystery. Very well written by a profesor that Alma LLeras had at UP.

A wonderful and accurate description of growing up in Puerto Rico and a beautiful memoir of a time gone. Garcia Ramis uses her memories of a beloved uncle to expose life in the colony.

What I enjoyed most about this book was that it gave me a small glimpse into what life in Puerto Rico would be like. It was kind of sad, too. And I saw a lot of the same traditions in that family that I see in my family.
