A review by sarah2438
All Over Creation by Ruth Ozeki

3.5

I liked the family dynamics and Yummy's complicated relationship with Elliot

(reminded me a lot of My Dark Vanessa)

but I'll be totally honest, I did not care about the plots revolving around GMOs and farming. I knew that was something I wouldn't get excited about so this wasn't necessarily a surprise, and obviously it wasn't a deal breaker because I still overall liked the book, but more an observation for myself. I read this for the library's Ultimate Book Nerd challenge and it was a great choice for the prompt (read a book set in the region you're born in) and I would say I'm pleased that I read it, and it's not something I would normally have picked up-- in that regard, this was a big win!
