mctmama 's review for:

American War by Omar El Akkad
3.0

Futuristic and Dystopian reads are not my favorite, and my rating reflects this. I must say the book was well written, and the characters well developed. One of my overall thoughts is why would "the South" band so heavily to fossil fuels? I can see the Southern mentality, and the domestic terrorist acts - very disconcerting read. Sarat is not a character I liked, or identified with, but I understood why she did everything she did.
