Let's Go Swimming on Doomsday by Natalie C. Anderson

5.0

This is a fascinating novel about child soldiers in Somalia. The characters are sympathetic, interesting, and complex. The plot speeds along at a furious pace, with lots of action and heart-pounding scenes. Anderson's prose is strong, her descriptions vivid, which makes for an atmospheric setting. Timely and moving, LET'S GO SWIMMING ON DOOMSDAY is an exciting, important read that should appeal to even reluctant readers.
