Book Review: Vermilion
One of the enjoyable aspects of Vermilion is the rich language Mr. Melton uses throughout the book to feed his story to his reader. From the first page, I tried to define the language. By the book's end, I settled on a definition. The language is rural, Midwestern Christian, and it really works. In total, I loved the writing and the story, and I highly recommend it to readers of all ages starting as young as junior in high school. That being said, I will share one criticism. The story ends too soon.
