Review: It’s in part about children attempting to emigrate from Mexico and further south to the US but also a lot more. It’s contemplative, imaginative and well-written. And the best thing – for me at least – was how the members of a made-up family (a mother with a five-year-old daughter from a previous relationship and a father with a 10-year old son from a previous relationship) interact. Don't want to say anything which might constitute a spoiler. Just read it. The book was long-listed for the Booker Prize in 2019 and is better, in my opinion, than the four short-listed books I've so far read or tried to read for that year (though I really liked Ducks, Newburyport).

Review: Having just finished American Dirt, which I absolutely loved, I wanted to reach out for another author and read a similar subject but from a fresh and entirely different perspective. I feel bored and deeply disappointed as this book feels pretentious and trys to hard to impress. I feel myself shuffling around and irritated, fifty pages in just waiting to be gripped by an exciting story line yet knowing its never going to happen. I feel like the author is showing off and all look at me and how clever I am. You are not clever at all... I am beyone bored at this point and wish you would just get on with the story. You fail to arouse my empathy for literally any of the characters. American Dirt told the story that you didn't. Please stop trying to impress us with your knowledge and just get on withtelli g a great story.
