rekadarnb 's review for:

Sooley by John Grisham
2.0

The whole time I was reading it, I didn’t feel connected to the characters. The only people I felt anything for was the sister and the mother over in Sudan. It read more like a news article than a story. The ending wasn't surprising. No lessons were learned. The cycle continues. (I also probably didn't like this because I don't agree with the sports industry, but I found this book on a best-coming-of-age-novels list. Go figure, considering the ending.)
