REVIEWED BY Becky Cox
Sweetwater American by Eileen Cruz Coleman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Coleman has a great story to tell and I believe she gets it across by the end of the book.
Sweetwater American has a great message and is a good story. It took me a pretty fair distance into the book to get into it. It started slow and a bit confusing. I put it down a few times and came
back to it.
There are some great characters that I enjoyed meeting. I felt like the heroine needed something during the first half to clear up some ambiguous and confusing things. All is explained eventually and I really liked the ending. It felt monumental and appropriate.
Sweetwater American covers some heavy issues of minorites and poverty. There isn't much levity.
This book was recommended by a few other people and I am glad I read it.
