Displacement by Thalia Chaltas - OPTIONAL


Chaltas, Thalia Displacement, pgs.357. Viking, 2011. $16.99 Language- R (37 swears, 20 "F" words) Mature Content- Pg-13 Vera came to Garrett, but she doesn't really know why. The desert people don't ask anyways. Even though she is a teenager that randomly appeared out of nowhere and tries to start a life. She settles into an abandon house, finds a job. And while she is trying to fit in, she is trying to figure out what she left behind. And who she left behind, but not all memories can be outran.         I found the style of this novel very interesting. She used a poetic style to make the voice in the book a lot more intriguing and unique. I would recommend this book to my peers as a break from formal literature. It is rated R in language for a lot of "F" words and PG-13 in Mature Content for strong language. HS – OPTIONAL.  Student Reviewer.
