Poignant, sweet. I loved the dialogue. My Mom used some of those expressions. Second time reading this book. Now I’m going to reread some more of Barbara Kingsolver books.

Kind of quirky, entertainment reading. The women are holding on and helping each other. The story has just enough plot to get you to read to the end.

A unique tale which comes from circumstances most people will never know, how it feels to be lost in the circumstances of the undocumented and illegal in America. Hard topics like child abuse and how the victims cope. An interesting and amazing book.

Loved the characters and the unique story of a family, not by blood, but by love.

I really enjoyed Demon Copperhead so this was a lit disappointing and a slower read. I will read her again though.

It’s dope

It helped to keep my committe guiet while I read.

Never ever read this s book. We had to read it for English class and it was super super boring and I never want to read it again

This book was great: the protagonist is a strong person who chooses to persevere for the benefit of her adopted child who otherwise would never have had a chance. Language and imagery are both used to create a beautiful, relatable story of the American Dream.

I am 13 years old, and had to read this book for school. It was one of the best books I have read in a long time. I would 100% recommend this book.
