A review by teensyfry
Solis by Abby Sher, Paola Mendoza

3.75

Solis is definitely a dystopian book. It entertains the idea of California splitting from the remaining 49 states, with undocumented immigrants working in a labor camp. The book ultimately is about sacrifice and freedom, and the story is told through 4 narrators. I think that the different narrators was a large benefit to the book. It helped me keep track of what was going on in each of the relevant areas, so I had a useful timeline for both. I think the book covered a lot of ideas and concepts in a limited amount of time, but not in a bad way where I was concerned about keeping track of all of it. Maybe another 20 pages or so would have been beneficial (maybe more background with some of the characters?), but overall I am very content with how the story concluded.

Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin for the ARC!
