Kids of Appetite by David Arnold
5.0
Review can be found on *Milky Way of Books*
While I have known about "Mosquitoland" the first book by this author, I actually began with "Kids of Appetite". And I loved it.
I loved the diverse characters and the issues of immigration, war, alchoolism and family abuse which were touched in an indirect way through the characters' back stories. Vic and the gang, each one of them was amazing and funny and so, so scarred. Coco knows how to steal the spotlight with her bad mouth and her innocence in the dark world she lives in; Zuz and his brother and Mad.
I liked how the story went back and forth as Vic's story and the rest of the gang comes closer and closer. And the ending was bittersweet but so so amazing!
I really liked this book and I'm looking forward for the next release of this author! ;)
