    C Pam Zhang Genre Fiction Editorial Review

    "How Much of These Hills Is Gold" is a novel about two orphaned siblings trying to survive in the Gold Rush era of the American West while dealing with their troubled immigrant parents' baggage. The book receives mixed reviews from customers, with some praising the writing and characters but criticising the overuse of the theme of "the land" throughout the chapters. Others had issues with the book's unnecessarily graphic and unpleasant content and found it hard to read. Some readers found the backstories to be frustrating, while others enjoyed the surprises and the strong female characters.

    Pros

    • Great writing
    • Strong, yet flawed, female characters
    • Surprising plot twists

    Cons

    • Overuse of the theme of "the land"
    • Graphic content
    • Frustrating backstories
