American Dirt: A Novel
by Jeanine Cummins
Such an adventure! (11/30/2019)
I really loved this book. This book has the key elements of what makes a great book - a plot driven story with characters you care about. Jeanine Cummins did a great job writing a story that created a setting that you could visualize with enough character development that you cared what happened. The subject matter is very relevant, and though heavy, it is done with grace.
"Because though she may understand something of this boy's circumstances, she doesn't know him."
I didn't want the book to end. I felt invested in what happens next to these characters. Another sign of what a fantastic read this was!
