A review by makeitsewquiltco
American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins

3.0

I wanted to love this one because it comes so highly rated, but I think the mother/child story hits a little too close to home. I also physically read this book after listening to a lot of audio books and had a hard time getting into it. I think I listen to too much news on this subject for it to hit as a new and horrifying story—it is absolutely hard to read but I’m maybe a bit desensitized by the real-life news
