Not bad book on immigration in America. The author uses a Miguel Sanchez, an immigration attorney who wins a case before the Supreme Court on immigration, to tell a twisty story.

Not worth 5 stars as the ending is predictable.

Thanks to Net Galley and BooksGoSocial for the chance to read and review.

Not what I expected, but thought provoking and engaging throughout. Would read more by this author anyday.

A story about American immigration and the issues surrounding it. Well written but I didn't enjoy the story.

Not really my cup of tea. I found it rather hard to get into "The Wall" due to, in part, to its writing style and the overall plot. Just not really for me.

I am interested in immigration and hearing the stories of people's journeys and experiences. I knew this was a work of fiction, with a pull of an attorney championing for immigration rights while being an illegal alien was intriguing. The book had a slow start, lots of details that might have been necessary for a later on in the plot, but it made it very hard to get into and I ended up not being able to keep reading and decided not to finish.

2.7/5

I am not sure, how to rate this book as this book was interesting and not interesting in so many places. I liked the idea of showing life/struggle of legal & illegal immigrates. But at the same time, i was so put off by the language at times.
Thanks netgalley and publishers for the book in return of an honest review.
Full review to follow soon.

Thank you Netgalley for sharing this book with me for a honest review.

The book focuses on one suspicious person where Bobby must reflect on his past to discover the truth.

The book is full of character development, mysterious deaths, propoganda, and suspicions. It is a smooth read with little interruptions.

I'm giving a 3 star due to the unrealistic plot and very long book summary. Nonetheless, I would still recommend this book to my friends.

All in all a nice book. Swift and telling, educational and in spite of the tough story neither brutal nor sad. I liked it, and although I‘d not consider it great literature I‘d recommend it for a shared reading experience in the classroom.

I was enjoying this book until the end which I thought was predictable and wrapped up too conveniently which is why I didn't give it 5 stars. I would like to thank the publishers and netgalley for letting me have the book to review and the opinions expressed are entirely my own views.

I thought this was a very interesting story and especially for the times we are living in now. Miguel Sanchez is an immigration attorney who wins a case before the Supreme Court on immigration. His background is rather unusual. Twenty years ago he was a different young man. This story takes you on the changes in his life and his friend, Bobby. It also shows what powerful men behind the man can make happen. Well worth the read.

The Wall
By Joseph Hayes

4 stars.

Is it really possible to make a difference in the world? Is it really true that anyone can become president of the USA? Is there really people behind the political scenes pulling all the strings?

Miguel Sanchez is a talent attorney with a hidden past, on the cusp of ruling America. For his entire life he has had those behind him pulling strings.

I found the book to be fast paced from start to climax, not getting stuck in the middle as some authors tend to do. The plot and characters are well developed through the pace and mini climax’s of the story.

It does set up those initial questions for the thinkers to mull over. It is mostly though a novel dealing with an immigration issue, and the test of friendship.

Thank you to Netgalley for providing a review copy in return for an honest review. All opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.

A great novel to jump start your brain into thinking about the immigration issue. In the beginning three Texas border town high school friends are introduced, all with different histories regarding their American citizenship. Following two murders our story jumps ahead twenty years and we find one of the three as a potential candidate for national office. Those murders come back to haunt the candidate and those closest to Himes as “The Cause” becomes more important than the people in the way.
