Helpful Score: 2

Couldn't finish this one. Didn't care for storyline, definitely didn't care for writing style. Wanted to read it because of all the buzz about 'white American' writing about the plight of illegal immigrants. It certainly doesn't portray the immigrants we see coming over our borders on a daily basis. Most of them don't have thousands of pesos tucked in their bags, nor friends and contacts to help them along the way. And the whole convoluted emotional affair she has with cartel leader....please!

I just wasn't interested in seeing what happened. Too many other great books to read.

Best sentence: No quiet slashing of ink on paper can resuscitate her dead mother, her husband.
