We Are the Ants

January 18th, 2017

First, this book is too long at 451 pages.  It is an easy read, but I think maybe a little too easy. While it brings up some interesting themes about homosexuality and domestic and relationship abuse, it is very repetitive and revisits these issues over and over without much other content. I worry that the main character will not be relatable to a lot of our students. There are some concerns about language that is often used in the book. I enjoyed reading the book but I don’t see it working well for LSEM.

Overall rating: 1/5 stars
