A review by bibliofiendlm
Soul Enchilada by David Macinnis Gill

3.0

This was good but didn't quite meet my expectations since it was on ALA's list of great books. It was humorous but the stylizing of the book w/ pitchforks and such was actually better than the writing. Some of the humor felt forced and Bug the protagonist wasn't all that likable. The cursing was overly dramatic and may be cause for some challenging the title for YA readers. The bilingual aspect of the text and issues of racism and multiculturalism will appeal to all types of readers.
