Review of 'Divisadero' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

One of those books that slows your breath as you settle into the language. I gasped when I turned the page and there were no more words, and I'm still not totally sure how I feel about the resolution. The stories were tied up and together in a way--not clearly or easily, but as I read the last few pages I felt more and more satisfied and comfortable saying that they were tied together well.
