A review by melodys_library
Sharks in the Time of Saviors by Kawai Strong Washburn

3.0

Slow start. By 40%, I was ready to throw in the towel. I loathed the teenage drama and sibling rivalry, and wished the whole novel would have been written from Malia (the mother’s) perspective. I read that this is the author’s first foray into adult fiction, but it still read much like a YA novel to me. Tragedy and more mysticism hit the Flores family and piqued my interest around 50%. I powered through reasonably quickly. I liked the pull of the mystery of the land and the family that was bound to it. However, I don’t do well with open endings.
