A review by imjohannagrace
City of the Beasts by Isabel Allende

3.0

This was actually really interesting and fun, the dialog was well written and the setting was fascinating. My problems with it were the lackluster cast of characters, and overly simplified ideas and conflicts (genocide being one) that being said, knowing that the book was translated from Spanish, I understand that some of the oomph was lost. It's probably better suited for younger teens than older but very enjoyable.
