In the Country We Love by Diane Guerrero & Michelle Burford Book Summary

The star of Orange is the New Black and Jane the Virgin presents her personal story of the real plight of undocumented immigrants in this country

Diane Guerrero, the television actress from the megahit Orange is the New Black and Jane the Virgin, was just fourteen years old on the day her parents were detained and deported while she was at school. Born in the U.S., Guerrero was able to remain in the country and continue her education, depending on the kindness of family friends who took her in and helped her build a life and a successful acting career for herself, without the support system of her family.

In the Country We Love is a moving, heartbreaking story of one woman's extraordinary resilience in the face of the nightmarish struggles of undocumented residents in this country. There are over 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the US, many of whom have citizen children, whose lives here are just as precarious, and whose stories haven't been told. Written with bestselling author Michelle Burford, this memoir is a tale of personal triumph that also casts a much-needed light on the fears that haunt the daily existence of families likes the author's and on a system that fails them over and over.

Your story is inspiring and beautiful and unique because it's yours and you are still fighting the good fight!Your parents are very blessed to have such a talented daughter!!!! Thank you again!

I couldn't put this book down. What a great book! I read it in 2 days as I couldn't put it down! What a great story of resilience and perseverance. As an immigrant child myself this book brought many tears to my eyes. In reading this book I thought this could've been my family. My heart ached for all the pain & sorrow this family went through. Thank you for telling your story & sharing such personal & painful memories with the world.

In the land we love by Diane Guerrero. Wether you are against immigration or for immigration, this is a must read. Informative, touching, and eye opening.

In the country we love. Heartbreaking and honest , glad you made it.

Great. This book was amazing! I’m speechless right now. It was like everything that everyone always dreams of not happening to them happened to her! Or all of our dreams came true for her too! She literally went from rags to riches, but she doesn’t let it get to her head, she still helps out tons of people and it’s just amazing! I seriously loved this book and totally recommend it to anyone who just wants to read an amazing book right now

Diane, Guerrera. Diane, you made me cry at 2 am listening to your audiobook. I went all the way to 5 am, I couldn’t stop. I’m an immigrant. I had the privilege to be legal, but never for a second I felt apart of all my dear friends who didn’t have the same luck. I don’t know how and from where you pull so much strength to keep (not going) thriving. This is a must read if want to understand what immigration means for families, how breaking families apart is not the solution. I highly recommend. Diane is a intelligent, brilliant women and the narrative is captivating.

In The Country We Love. As a bilingual teacher for the last 24 years, I've heard this story all too often. Diane's story is one that touched my heart because of the plight that many immigrants face, one of fear and hope. Let's take Diane's story to heart and do something that will make immigration reform possible and better. Vote and put someone in office who truly cares about the plight of immigrants.
