Alvarez, Julia. Before We Were Free. New York: Knopf, April
2004. The book “Before We Were Free”, a 12-year old girl living in
the Dominican Republic in 1960 relates the terrors of her country's
regime and the attempt to overthrow Trujillo's dictatorship. Many
critics are mentioning this book as a work of art and as a pitch-
perfect narration. It has many readers astonished and left
breathless with its conflicts and details. I would read and
recommend this book because it is the book that gives the reader
a passion to keep reading.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia. Chronicle of a Death Foretold. New
York: Random House Inc, 1981. Marquez has been recognized
as one of the most remarkable storytellers of the 20th Century. In
1982, he won the Nobel Prize for Literature. The story has to do
with murders that had happened in history but not all the
information is true. I would not read this book because I’m more
interested in books that have nothing to do with death.
Naylor, Gloria. Mama Day. New York: Ticknor & Fields,
February 1988. Some reviewers had a great respect for Naylor’s
ambitious book and its accomplishments, while others thought of
it as confusing. The books difference of speakers and its mixture
of reality and fantasy bothered many readers. I would not read
this book because I wouldn’t be able to relax while reading this.
Sasson, Jean. Princess. Atlanta: Windsor-Brooke Books, March
2001. This book is actually a true story about a Saudi Arabia,
Princess. This story delivers a gripping account of the horrors
and shame suffered by actual modern-day Saudi women. This is
presented by the bestselling author. I would read this book
because it has to do with reality and modern-day life.
Meyer, Carolyn. Where the Broken Heart still Beats. San Diego:
Gulliver Books Paperbacks, October 15, 1992. This book was
based on a story about Cynthia Ann Parker and was found to be a
very depressing book. Many readers have given this book good
reviews and are fascinated by the way the author used the words
to put emotions in them while reading it. This is a type of book
that I would read because it has feeling in it.
Cisneros, Sandra. The House on Mango Street. New York:
Knopf, 1983. Sandra Cisneros is an American novelist, short-
story writer, essayist, and poet. She has written many types of
different books such as Pelitos, and Bad boys. The book house
on mango street was awarded the Before Columbus American
Book Award in 1985. Many readers recommend this book for
young women. This is a book I would not read because I am
more of an adventure/action type book.
Parks, Gordon. A choice of Weapons. St. Paul: Minnesota
Historical Society Press, October 1986. According to most
critics, this novel by Gordon Parks, and award-winning
photographer and artist, is a very amazing novel. This novel is
bout his life which was very hard and he overcame racism
throughout his youth and early manhood. This is a novel that has
a person showing determination and motivation, and for this
reason I would be grateful to read this book.
Staples, Suzanne Fisher. Shabanu. New York: Sagebrush
Education Resources, August 1991. Staples's description of
desert life is breathtaking. She uses vivid, lyrical metaphors to
create the effectiveness of the family's joys and struggles. This is
what most critics say about this novel. Staples won a 1990
Newbery Honor Medal for Shabanu. Shabanu was born out of
Suzanne's own surprise at the life she found while working in
Pakistan. However, some readers are saying that Shabanu is a
horrible and pointless book and that it is a disgrace to the middle
east while other readers say that this is a great book. I am not
sure if this book would be right for me.
Garland, Sherry. Shadow of the Dragon. San Diego: Harcourt,
October 1993. Most of the reviews I read just simply describe
this book as an incredible book. Some reviews say that this novel
keeps you on the edge of your seat. There were little errors such
as to many conflicts in the novel but despite that this novel is
tremendous. This is a book that I will soon read because of
different conflicts in them.
