ok the reviews on here do NOT reflect this book. i read them and so i went in with low expectations and wow mcbride went above and beyond those expectations. i loved the cast of characters, the world building, and the way that the characters were treated with dignity despite their circumstances. i did find the plot a little hard to follow at times, but the writing was witty, entertaining and very very insightful about this thing we call america. definitely an author i will be returning to. a great read!!!!
