A Good Neighborhood by Therese Anne Fowler


I read this book in about two days - that is how riveting it was for me.  I had some problems with it initially.  Some characters are stereotypes, I know, but I still was totally engaged. I thought I might be able to predict how the book would end, and I was SO WRONG!

I recommend reading this book if you are interested in racial issues.  I don't want to spoil any of the plot, so I won't say much more about it.  

Summary from Publisher:  

A Good Neighborhood asks big questions about life in America today—what does it mean to be a good neighbor? How do we live alongside each other when we don't see eye to eye?—as it explores the effects of class, race, and heartrending love in a story that’s as provocative as it is powerful.
