A review by verkiezen
Money Hungry by Sharon G. Flake

3.0

Raspberry is obsessed with money. She doesn't spend it. She hordes it. In a million places in her bedroom, she keeps it. In Raspberry's mind, money is the only thing keeping her and her mother from returning to the streets.

I really liked Money Hungry. I can identify with Raspberry's financial concerns even though it shouldn't be her problem. It also made me so aware of the failings of our society. We--as a society--have failed in the safety systems we've set up And we've failed in being empathetic towards others. I would recommend this to people looking for realistic fiction.
