    My first impression of the book was that it was very stupid but after reading a little bit more now I think it is a ok book. Some of the similarities are that most of the villages are very poor don't have enough food.

    I believe that the book has some potential to catch my interst, but it just doesn't. I have read upto chapter five and it really really isn't getting my attention.

    I think it will be cool to see a culture, and now just seeing how poor a lot of them are makes me realize how much we have and how much freedom we really do have.

    My first impression on this novel is for it to be touching and sad, this boook has started out really good but i have to say the title confused me until i found out the comparison. Asian cultures i see as hard workers who are down to earth. Latinos i see as party people who still get some hard work done.

    I think this book is an interesting book if I keep on reading but right now it is barely catching my interest.
