Negative Positive
Title: Abandenment
Review: This was a very easy read book. Kent Haruf was able to capture the readers attention with his very descriptive writing. All though it was not exactly a book that you could not put down and stop reading, you felt like you knew each one of the characters personally.It is about the troubled lives of each family, or do you really consider it family since they seem to be falling apart. Each family is missing a family member. Ike and Bobby are abanded by their mother who won't even get out of bed. Victoria is a 17 year old high school student who is pregnant and her mom pretty much disowns her. Maggie Jones is a lonesome lady looking for a man. Guthrie has his boy, but lost his wife to depression. The Mcpheron brothers are bachelors who know everything about the ranch, but not too much about girls.This novel takes place in a small town where everybody knows everything about everybody's business. After reading the book you will feel like you can relate to all of these things.
Is the review positive or negative?
