A review by booksthatburn
Paola Santiago and the River of Tears by Tehlor Kay Mejia
Did not finish book. Stopped at 31%.
I wasn't liking it much and then I got to the bit with the former classmate and I got really frustrated so I stopped. I didn't like the combination of how long it took for the main character to get what was going on, plus how little the people with actual answers were willing to tell her. I don't know whether I would have liked this as a kid or not, but it's definitely not for me now.
Moderate: Racism and Kidnapping
Minor: Ableism and Child death
CW for ableist language (unchallenged).
