Tolog Reviews: Pigs in Heaven

Pigs in Heaven 
by Barbara Kingsolver
reviewed by Alexandra Tighe, class of 2017

Pigs in Heaven by Barbara Kingsolver is the sequel to The Bean Trees. It follows the story of Turtle and Taylor but this time Taylor's mother plays a larger role. At the end of The Bean Trees there are still lots of questions about the fate of the Greer ladies. Pigs in Heaven answers all of these questions in a clever way with lots of twists and turns. The ending is nothing you ever expected! New characters are introduced and their individual stories add depth and complexity to the story. I enjoyed reading this book and I thought it was a great way to tie in to summer reading. If you liked The Bean Trees, you'll love this book!
