In the Time of the Butterflies: Maria Teresa

For my first post for this book, I thought I'd write about Maria Teresa. I found it interesting that Mate was one of the first of the sisters to join the revolution (along with Minerva). Since she's so much younger than the other three I suspected that she would be the last to join. At the beginning of the book, I felt that she wouldn't be very connected to the lives of her older sisters because of the large age difference. This event proved me wrong and showed that Mate is still closely connected with her older sisters.
