The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise by Dan Gemeinhart
3.5
have i read a million books with the same themes? yes. do i want to read even more? always. god i love middle grade fiction feat. teen girl + family + friends.
sad to say this is the first book by a man that i've read this year (boo). the plot, while unrealistic at times (it's fiction, what can you expect?), was exciting and unpredictable, and i enjoyed the diverse, kind cast of characters. my one major gripe is the writing, which was fun but seemed appropriative in a way that's hard to explain (or maybe i just don't know how people talk in rural washington). regardless, it threw me out of the story a bit and seemed unnecessary/unrealistic. would recommend because i love emotional books and i cried a lot near the end.
