Sorrowland shows manipulation comes in many forms and hard to trust people. It was written really well and I could understand motivations behind Vern's actions. I had to keep reminding myself, she is but a child herself. Which accounted for her naiveness at times. I thought her kids were bad and needed home training, but then again they live in the wild, so guess that is it. I like it included historical references, which were educational and eye opening. The visions sometimes were wild, out there at times, and other times I didn't understand them. Book was definitely unique and it kept my attention. It had some really bold statements too about religion.
