Reviews for the second edition:

"Compañeras is one of the most exciting books I’ve picked up in a long time. The stories are well told and compelling and the entire collection is rich with the excitement of women spreading the truth about their lives, with breaking silences, with saying in print what has never been said before." –Feminist Bookstore News

"Compañeras celebrates Latina lesbian history and existence. The volume as a whole documents the struggle of Latina lesbians to understand the systems of oppression that seek to invalidate their lives." – Sojourner

"The women here speak from the specifics of lesbian experience in their various native lands (Cuba, Puerto Rico, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil and the US). For women who identify as lesbians – that is, not under the protection of a man – there is no refuge from the battle." – Jewelle Gomez, New Directions for Women
