If you're like me and realized you fit the 'moron' category after reading this book, don't worry—you're in good company! John Leguizamo's Latin History for Morons is that rare educational comedy that makes you laugh while filling embarrassing gaps in your knowledge.

The book brilliantly blends humor with hard-hitting historical facts. I found myself snort-laughing one minute, then pausing to Google 'Wait, THAT really happened?!' the next. It's like your coolest history teacher decided to roast colonialism between PowerPoint slides.

My only complaint? The lack of Spanish translation feels like a missed opportunity. I kept imagining how powerful this would be for Spanish-speaking relatives who deserve this knowledge served with Leguizamo's signature sass.

Perfect for: Anyone who slept through history class, fans of educational comedy, or people who want to understand Latinx heritage beyond stereotypes. Just be prepared—you'll emerge 30% wiser and 100% more likely to annoy friends with random historical facts at parties.
