Brilliant books. I reviewed them at @folkworks.bsky.social
It was led by three authors. One was Tim Z. Hernandez.
Through his memoir, Tim Z. Hernandez (They Call You Back) investigates the plane crash that killed 28 Mexicans in Los Gatos Canyon. I can't wait to read it and his first book, All They Will Call You.
