A review by bougainvillea
All Decent Animals by Oonya Kempadoo

2.0

It took me weeks to read this. I have such mixed feelings about it. The language/writing was really lovely in a lot of passages. Wonderful descriptions. I could definitely see using a lot of passages in class for a variety of reasons. But as a whole... it just seemed like there was too much going on, and thus not enough focus on one story to make it really matter in the way that it should. I really wanted to and thought I would love this book, but sadly, that was not the case.
