Prayers for the Stolen by Jennifer Clement

Engrossing, well-written prose. I was totally sucked into this book on the first page. The author does a fantastic job of creating empathy between the reader and the characters right off the bat. I was transported to LadyDi's mountain, I felt her anguish and her plight. I absolutely loved the way the author narrated this, omitting dialogue tags and quotations. It was beautiful and flowed well. Her prose was perfect for this unique and well-written story of a girl who could be any girl in Mexico. I was a bit frightened after reading this and solidified my previous choice of never stepping foot in Mexico again. I highly recommend this book!

I was given this book for free in exchange for an honest review. My opinions are my own.  I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255 :"Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising".
