The House of Broken Angels
by Luis Alberto Urrea
The House of Broken Angels (3/1/2018)
I was very excited to get this book, but it turned out to be a disappointment for me. I loved The Hummingbirds Daughter and looked forward to being in love with Urrea's new novel. The Humminbird's Daughter had such lovely and mystical writing. Broken Angels was a good storymore
The Last Flight of Poxl West
by Daniel Torday
Poxl West (1/7/2015)
I did not find this book as wonderful as some reviewers did.
It seemed to lack depth to me and I really couldn't warm up to the characters at all. It is a story about loss, quilt and forgiveness, but seemed a little disjointed to me.
