A review by alstrath
Good Man, Dalton by Karen McQuestion
4.0
This story felt to me like a study in social standings in society and how we perceive others based on their social media illusion.
Greta: admires her cousin's glitzy, fun life on social media - never having met Cece before.
Dalton: walks away from his social position in life to try understand the forgotten people in society - the homeless.
Each of them quickly discovers that things look quite different when you're no longer on the outside looking in as opposed to living inside the situation.
And then in a strange twist of fate; their paths meet.
I found this a very interesting look at how things are not always as we think they are - how images can be manipulated to tell a story and how invisible the homeless people really are.
It leaves you with something to think about and also shows that there are good guys out there.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me the chance to read this book.
