A review by dumbledork624
The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie
2.0
I was hopeful that this book would be everything I had read about it in the reviews online. It definitely has good bones, but it doesn’t leave me wanting for more. It had a very juvenile writing style to it, and while the protagonist is a juvenile and you’d think that would add something more to the story, it lacked the ability to hold my interest.
Buried deep inside the narrator’s ramblings, there are some thought-provoking insights as to what it is like to be the minority in a world that sees differences as taboo. It does have some good points, but you have to be open to searching for them.
Not a horrible read, but definitely not my favorite book either. The entire time I was reading, I was wondering how long I had left until I was finished and could pick up something else. Kind of disappointed.
