Book 14

Title: Digging to America
Author: Anne Tyler
Pages: 277
Setting: Maryland

Synopsis: The story of an American family and an Iranian family both raising children they adopted from Korea.

Favorite quote: "September brought its smell of dry leaves that could so easily be mistaken for the smell of freshly sharpened pencils..."

Most irritating quote: "Brad worried vaccinations were dangerous." I hate it when people would rather leave their kid open to polio or the measles because of the chance of some mild side effects.

Most irritating part: One of the main character's names is Bitsy.

I would not recommend this book. I feel like nothing really happened in it. There was no climax to it. I could not get into the characters lives and did not care what happened to them. The ending was also a severe disappointment.
