I'm so glad Mack hasn't stopped talking about this book for months because I absolutely loved this one, once I finally snagged the audio from the library. PSA to everyone who wants to know more about immigration at the border: stop reading American Dirt and read this book because it is very, very good.

I liked Rosy’s portion of the book much more than Julie’s, but overall found it enjoyable.
