hannahkats 's review for:

American War by Omar El Akkad
4.0

The first half of the book was a little difficult for me to fully immerse myself in. That being said, once it started to pick up, it was hard for me to put the book down. A fantastic novel, El Akkad creates a future full of chaos, poverty, and war, but one that was based on many of the political hot topics of today, making it not seem that futuristic at all.
