Book Reviews of Rolling The R's
Book Review: Alright, but not for me.
Summary: 3 Stars
This is definitely a series of vignettes, and not the traditional novel. Each chapter is told in a new way, and they often switched between Pidgin and English. I felt that this novel was directed to an audience somewhat older than me (I'm just graduating college now), an audience who grew up with Farrah Fawcett and Charlie's Angels. While I caught some of the pop culture references, I'm sure quite a few were lost on me too. Overall, this really just was not my style of novel, and the grammar lover within me flinched at the Pidgin. It was also quite sexually explicit to feel like it was truly written about fifth graders and their community.
