American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins

3.0

It was hard to really get into this book after reading comments that it was an inaccurate portrayal of Mexico. It seemed believable, but what do I know?

The book tracks a mother and her son’s dangerous journey from Mexico to America, running from the cartel. It’s high pace. I can’t say I really enjoyed it, it was pretty tense and uncomfortable a lot of the time but not poorly written. Wouldn’t be surprised if this gets made into a film.
